I'm trying to create a HA LSFS disk from powershell but with deduplication disabled. Following the powershell samples I can do everything but.

Option 1: Creates a HA disk with thick provisioning
# Define nodes etc first...
$device = Add-HADevice -server $server -firstNode $firstNode -secondNode $secondNode -initMethod "Clear"

Option 2: Creates a HA disk with LSFS and deduplication ON
# Define nodes etc first...
$firstNode.storageType = [StarWindFileType]::STARWIND_DD_FILE
$secondNode.storageType = [StarWindFileType]::STARWIND_DD_FILE
$device = Add-HADevice -server $server -firstNode $firstNode -secondNode $secondNode -initMethod "Clear"

Option 3: Creates a single LSFS disk with deduplication OFF
$device = Add-DDDevice -server $server -path "My Computer\C\Starwind" -fileName $fileName -storageSize 128 -sectorSize 512 -CacheMode "wb" -CacheSize 128 -DeduplicationEnabled $false

Option 4: Creates a HA LSFS disk with deduplication OFF
?????

Any help appreciated

Unfortunately, the possibility of creation LSFS disk with deduplication OFF is not available yet via PowerShell.

This command creates a mirrored virtual disk using the specified physical disk, initializes it, creates a partition using maximum available size, formats the volume as NTFS with a specified label, and disables deduplication on the volume.

LSFS is considered EoL. We're brining another in-line deduplication engine at this point.
