Description

The Set-IscsiServerTarget cmdlet modifies settings for the iSCSi target and returns the corresponding iSCSI Target object if the PassThru parameter is specified.

Examples

Example 1: Remove all initiators associated with a target

PS C:\> Set-IscsiServerTarget -TargetName "Test" -InitiatorId @()

This example removes all of the initiators that are associated with the target named Test.

Example 2: Modify a description for a target

PS C:\> Set-IscsiServerTarget -TargetName "TargetOne" -Description "Target for initiator Appsvr"

This example sets the description for a target named TargetOne to Target for initiator Appsvr.

Example 3: Configure forward CHAP

PS C:\> $password = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "passwordpass" -AsPlainText -Force



PS C:\> $chap = New-Object -ComObject System.Management.Automation.PSCredential("user", $password)



PS C:\> Set-IscsiServerTarget -TargetName "T1" -EnableChap $True -Chap $chap

This example enables and sets the forward CHAP on a target named T1 with the credentials user and password.

Example 4: Assign initiator IDs to a target

PS C:\> Set-IscsiServerTarget -TargetName "Test" -InitiatorId @("IPAddress:10.10.1.10","IPAddress:10.10.1.11")

This example assigns more IDs to the same target.

Example 5: Assigns a target to all initiators that attempt to connect to it

PS C:\> Set-IscsiServerTarget -TargetName "Test" -InitiatorId "IQN:*"

This example assigns the target to all initiators that attempt to connect to it. Because no validation is performed the iSCSI target when an initiator makes a connection, be very cautious when you use this configuration. It is most useful when troubleshooting connection issues, because it removes the risk of Target-Initiator assignment errors.
