Parameters

Required Parameter Name Type Position Features Description
required
 Target VsanIscsiTarget[] named
  • pipeline
  • wildcards
 Specifies the list of vSAN iSCSI targets you want to modify.
optional AddInitiator String[] named
Specifies the names of the vSAN iSCSI initiators which you want to add to the allowed access list.
optional AuthenticationType VsanIscsiTargetAuthenticationType named
Specifies the authentication type for the iSCSI target.
optional IncomingChapSecret SecureString named
Specifies the CHAP user secret for the target. Applicable when the authentication type is Chap or MutualChap.
optional IncomingChapUser String named
Specifies the CHAP user name for the target. Applicable when the authentication type is Chap or MutualChap.
optional Name String named
Specifies the new name of the vSAN iSCSI target. The name should be unique within a cluster.
optional NetworkInterface String named
Specifies the VMkernel network interface which handles the iSCSI traffic. This parameter accepts an object of type HostVMKernelVirtualNic by silently converting it to the string name by using ArgumentTransformationAttribute.
optional OutgoingChapSecret SecureString named
Specifies the CHAP user secret you want to attach to the initiator. Applicable when the authentication type is MutualChap.
optional OutgoingChapUser String named
Specifies the CHAP user name you want to attach to the initiator. Applicable when the authentication type is MutualChap.
optional ProgressAction ActionPreference named
optional RemoveInitiator String[] named
Specifies the names of the vSAN iSCSI initiators which you want to remove from the allowed access list.
optional RunAsync SwitchParameter named
Indicates that the command returns immediately without waiting for the task to complete. In this mode, the output of the cmdlet is a Task object. For more information about the RunAsync parameter run "help About_RunAsync" in the VMware PowerCLI console.
optional Server VIServer[] named
  • wildcards
 Specifies the vCenter Server systems on which you want to run the cmdlet. If no value is provided or $null value is passed to this parameter, the command runs on the default servers. For more information about default servers, see the description of Connect-VIServer.
optional StoragePolicy SpbmStoragePolicy named
  • wildcards
 Specifies the storage policy applied to the vSAN namespace of the iSCSI target.
optional TcpPort Int32 named
Specifies the network port on which the target is accessible. If specified, NetworkInterface should also be specified.
