`<CommonParameters>`

This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see [ Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_commonparameters?view=powershell-7).

## Output Object
The cmdlet returns the `VBRvCDIndividualObjectStoragePolicy` object that defines the settings of Cloud Director storage policies for vApps or VMs.

## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Defining VApp Storage Policy

This example shows how to define a storage policy for the `Atlanta05` vApp.

```
$vapp = Find-VBRvCloudEntity -VApp -Name "Atlanta05"
$policy = Find-VBRvCloudEntity -StorageProfile
$vpolicy = New-VBRvCDIndividualObjectStoragePolicy -VApp $vapp[0] -StoragePolicy $policy[0]
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Find-VBRvCloudEntity`](find-vbrvcloudentity.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` and `VApp` parameters. Save the result to the `$vapp` variable.
2. Run the [`Find-VBRvCloudEntity`](find-vbrvcloudentity.md) cmdlet. Provide the `StorageProfile` parameter. Save the result to the `$policy` variable.
3. Run the `New-VBRvCDIndividualObjectStoragePolicy` cmdlet. Set the `$vapp` variable as the `VApp` parameter value. Set the `$policy` variable as the `StoragePolicy` parameter value. Save the result to the `$vpolicy` variable.

::: example
### Example 2. Defining VM Storage Policy

This example shows how to define a storage policy for the `Admin05` VM.

```
$vapp = Find-VBRvCloudEntity -VM -Name "Admin05"
$policy = Find-VBRvCloudEntity -StorageProfile
$vmpolicy = New-VBRvCDIndividualObjectStoragePolicy -VM $vapp[0] -StoragePolicy $policy[0]
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Find-VBRvCloudEntity`](find-vbrvcloudentity.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` and `VM` parameters. Save the result to the `$vapp` variable.
2. Run the [`Find-VBRvCloudEntity`](find-vbrvcloudentity.md) cmdlet. Provide the `StorageProfile` parameter. Save the result to the `$policy` variable.
3. Run the `New-VBRvCDIndividualObjectStoragePolicy` cmdlet. Set the `$vapp` variable as the `VM` parameter value. Set the `$policy` variable as the `StoragePolicy` parameter value. Save the result to the `$vmpolicy` variable.
