Note: Removal of a masking set, will remove access to all virtual disks defined in the masking set for all initiator IDs, and target ports defined in the masking set.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a masking set

PS C:\>Remove-MaskingSet -FriendlyName "MaskingSet01"

This example removes the masking set named MaskingSet01. The virtual disks that were defined in this masking set are no longer accessible to any initiators defined in this masking set. A new masking set must be created to restore access to the virtual disks from a Windows computer acting as a client to the storage subsystem.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

-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.

Parameter sets

InputObject (cdxml)
Position:Named
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:True

-PassThru

Sends items from the interactive window down the pipeline as input to other cmdlets. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

To send items from the interactive window down the pipeline, click to select the items and then click OK. Shift-click and Ctrl-click are supported.

-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.

Notes

  • When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
