Typically used either for connection to an iSCSI target in the case of iSCSI, or for in the management of masking sets in the case of FibreChannel.
Parameters
-CimSession [<CimSession[]>]
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
-ConnectionType [<ConnectionType[]>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByPropertyName
Specifies the type of the connection. Acceptable values are: Other, FibreChannel, iSCSI, and SAS.
To specify a custom connection type, specify the Other value and specify a non-NULL value for the OtherConnectionTypeDescription property.
-InstanceName [<String[]>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByPropertyName
Specifies the instance name of the initiator.
-NodeAddress [<String[]>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByPropertyName
Specifies the node address for the initiator.
-ObjectId [<String[]>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByPropertyName
Specifies the ObjectID of the initiator.
-ThrottleLimit [<Int32>]
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShellr calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
-VirtualDisk [<CimInstance>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByValue
Specifies the VirtualDisk object for which you want to get the initiator port. Enter a VirtualDisk CIM object, which is exposed by the Get-VirtualDisk cmdlet.
-iSCSIConnection [<CimInstance>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByValue
Specifies the iSCSIConnection object for which you want to get the initiator port. Enter an iSCSIConnection CIM object, which is exposed by the Get-IscsiConnection cmdlet.
-iSCSISession [<CimInstance>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByValue
Specifies the iSCSISession object for which you want to get the initiator port. Enter an iSCSISession CIM object, which is exposed by the Get-IscsiSession cmdlet.
-iSCSITarget [<CimInstance>]
- Accepts pipeline input ByValue
Specifies the iSCSITarget object for which you want to get the initiator port. Enter an iSCSITarget CIM object, which is exposed by the Get-IscsiTarget cmdlet.
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.
