Add-TargetPortToMaskingSet
Adds one or more target ports to a specified masking set, allowing a connection between the target ports, and any virtual disks and initiator IDs that the masking set contains.

Description
The Add-TargetPortToMaskingSet cmdlet adds one or more target ports to a specified masking set, allowing a connection between the target ports, and any virtual disks and initiator IDs that the masking set contains. All target ports must use the same connection type (for example iSCSI or Fibre Channel).
Note: This cmdlet works only on storage subsystems that support multi-port per view selection (MaskingPortsPerView = 3).
To view the MaskingPortsPerView property, type the following cmdlets: Get-StorageSubSystem | Format-Table -Property FriendlyName, MaskingPortsPerView
ps_storage_spacesubsystem_not_remark
Examples
Example 1: Add a target port
PS C:\> $TargetPortObject = Get-TargetPort
PS C:\> $subSystem = Get-StorageSubSystem SANArray1
PS C:\> $maskingSet = Get-MaskingSet "Cluster1MaskingSet"
PS C:\> $subSystem | Get-TargetPort | Where-Object ConnectionType -eq "Fibre Channel" | Format-Table -AutoSize FriendlyName, PortAddress
FriendlyName PortAddress
------------ -----------
Stor1_FCTargetPort.0a 500A098387995A75
Stor1_FCTargetPort.0b 500A098487995A75
Stor1_FCTargetPort.0c 500A098187995A75
Stor1_FCTargetPort.0d 500A098287995A75
PS C:\> $maskingSet | Add-TargetPortToMaskingSet -TargetPortAddresses "500A098187995A75"
This example demonstrates enumerating the Fibre Channel target ports on a given storage subsystem, and adding one of the target ports to an existing masking set.
Parameters
-AsJob
ps_cimcommon_asjob
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-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-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227967 or Get-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227966 cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
Type: | CimSession[] |
Aliases: | Session |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Aliases: | cf |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | False |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-InputObject
Accepts a MaskingSet object from the pipeline as input.
Type: | CimInstance[] |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | True |
Accept pipeline input: | True |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-MaskingSetFriendlyName
Specifies the friendly name of the masking set to which you want to assign a target port.
Type: | String[] |
Position: | 0 |
Default value: | None |
Required: | True |
Accept pipeline input: | True |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-MaskingSetUniqueId
Specifies the UniqueID of the masking set to which you want to assign a target port.
Type: | String[] |
Aliases: | Id |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | True |
Accept pipeline input: | True |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-PassThru
Specifies that the cmdlet should output an object representing the masking set to which it added target ports. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-TargetPortAddresses
Specifies one or more target port addresses, which you can view by looking at the PortAddress property returned by the Get-TargetPort cmdlet. The target port addresses will be added to the masking set.
Type: | String[] |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-ThrottleLimit
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.
Type: | Int32 |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-WhatIf
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Aliases: | wi |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | False |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
Inputs
You can pipe a MaskingSet object to the InputObject parameter.
Outputs
If you specify the Passthru parameter, this cmdlet outputs an object that represents the masking set to which you added a target port.
