### Example 1: Enable data deduplication on volumes
32
-
```
33
-
PS C:\> Enable-DedupVolume -Volume "D:","E:","F:"
33

+
```powershell
35

36
-
This command enables data deduplication on volumes D:, E:, and F:.
37
-
This command does not specify a value for the **UsageType** parameter, and, therefore, the cmdlet uses defaults for general purpose file server operations.
38

This command enables data deduplication on volumes `D:`, `E:`, and `F:`. This command does not
39

specify a value for the **UsageType** parameter, and, therefore, the cmdlet uses defaults for
40

-
Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a [New-CimSession](/powershell/module/cimcmdlets/new-cimsession) or [Get-CimSession](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227966) cmdlet.

Specifies the expected type of workload for the volume.
137
-
This cmdlet sets several low-level settings to default values that are appropriate to the usage type that you specify.
138
-
If you specify this parameter for a volume that already has data deduplication enabled, the cmdlet modifies the settings to the appropriate default values.
139
-
If you run this cmdlet on a volume that already has data deduplication enabled but do not specify this parameter, the cmdlet does not change the usage type.

Specifies the expected type of workload for the volume. This cmdlet sets several low-level settings
154
+
to default values that are appropriate to the usage type that you specify. If you specify this
155
+
parameter for a volume that already has data deduplication enabled, the cmdlet modifies the settings
156

The acceptable values for this parameter are:
141
159
142
-
- HyperV.
143
-
A volume for Hyper-V storage.
144
-
- Backup.
145
-
A volume that is optimized for virtualized backup servers.
146
-
- Default.
147
-
A general purpose volume.
148
-
If you do not specify a value for this parameter, the cmdlet uses a value of Default.
160
+
- `HyperV`A volume for Hyper-V storage.
161
+
- `Backup`A volume that is optimized for virtualized backup servers.
162
+
- `Default`A general purpose volume. If you do not specify a value for this parameter, the cmdlet
163
+
uses a value of Default.

-
If you specify a value of HyperV, the computer that has data deduplication enabled cannot be the same computer that runs Hyper-V.
151
-
The two computers must communicate remotely.
165
+
If you specify a value of HyperV, the computer that has data deduplication enabled cannot be the
166
