NAME New-IscsiTargetPortal



SYNOPSIS

Configures an iSCSI target portal.





SYNTAX

New-IscsiTargetPortal [-AuthenticationType <String>] [-ChapSecret <String>] [-ChapUsername <String>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]

[-InitiatorInstanceName <String>] [-InitiatorPortalAddress <String>] [-IsDataDigest <Boolean>] [-IsHeaderDigest <Boolean>]

[-TargetPortalPortNumber <UInt16>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] -TargetPortalAddress <String> [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

The New-IscsiTargetPortal cmdlet connects a new iSCSI target portal.





PARAMETERS

-AuthenticationType [<String>]

Specifies the type of authentication to use when logging into the target. The acceptable values for this parameter are:



-- None

-- OneWayCHAP

-- MutualCHAP



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ChapSecret [<String>]

Specifies the CHAP secret to use when establishing a connection authenticated by using CHAP.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-ChapUsername [<String>]

Specifies the user name to use when establishing a connection authenticated by using Mutual CHAP.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-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.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-InitiatorInstanceName [<String>]

Specifies the name of the initiator instance that the iSCSI initiator service uses to send SendTargets requests to the target portal. If no

instance name is specified, the iSCSI initiator service chooses the initiator instance.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-InitiatorPortalAddress [<String>]

Specifies the IP address or DNS name that is associated with the portal.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false



-IsDataDigest [<Boolean>]

Indicates whether this cmdlet enables data digest when the initiator logs into the target portal. If you do not specify this parameter, the

digest setting is determined by the initiator kernel mode driver.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-IsHeaderDigest [<Boolean>]

Indicates whether this cmdlet enables header digest when the initiator logs into the target portal. If you do not specify this parameter, the

digest setting is determined by the initiator kernel mode driver.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-TargetPortalAddress <String>

Specifies the IP address or DNS name of the target portal.



Required? true

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-TargetPortalPortNumber [<UInt16>]

Specifies the TCP/IP port number for the target portal. By default, the port number is 3260.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



-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 PowerShell???? 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.



Required? false

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false



<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,

ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,

OUTPUTS

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.Ciminstance#MSFT_IscsiTargetPortal



The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects.

The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.





Example 1: Add an iSCSI target portal



PS C:\\>New-IscsiTargetPortal -TargetPortalAddress "testIscsi"

InitiatorInstanceName :

InitiatorNodeAddress :

InitiatorPortalAddress :

InititorIPAdressListNumber : 4294967295

IsDataDigest : False

IsHeaderDigest : False

TargetPortalAddress : testIscsi

TargetPortalPortNumber : 3260



This command adds a new iSCSI target portal named testIscsi to perform discovery.
