The SMS_TaskSequence_PartitionDiskAction Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class is an SMS Provider server class, in Configuration Manager, that represents a task sequence action that formats and partitions a specified disk on a target computer.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties.

Class SMS_TaskSequence_PartitionDiskAction : SMS_TaskSequence_Action
{
	SMS_TaskSequence_Condition Condition;
	Boolean ContinueOnError;
	String Description;
	UInt32 DiskIndex;
	Boolean DiskpartBiosCompatibilityMode;
	String DiskType;
	Boolean Enabled;
	Boolean GPTBootDisk;
	String Name;
	SMS_TaskSequence_PartitionSettings Partitions[];
	String PartitionStyle;
	String SupportedEnvironment;
	UInt32 Timeout;
};
