Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|

id={<dword> | <GUID>} |
For MBR disks, specifies a four-byte (DWORD) value in hexadecimal form for the signature. For GPT disks, specifies a GUID for the identifier. |

noerr |
For scripting only. When an error is encountered, DiskPart continues to process commands as if the error did not occur. Without this parameter, an error causes DiskPart to exit with an error code. |
Remarks
- This command works on basic and dynamic disks.
- A disk must be selected for this command to succeed. Use the
select disk command to select a disk and shift the focus to
it.
