Properties

The MSIscsiInitiator_TargetClass class has these properties.

DiscoveryMechanism

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

Indicates the available discovery mechanism for the target.

InitiatorName

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

Indicates the name of the iSCSI initiator the target is connected to.

LoginOptions

Data type: MSIscsiInitiator_TargetLoginOptions
Access type: Read-only

An array of MSIscsiInitiator_TargetLoginOptions structures which contain information about target login options.

Mappings

Data type: MSIscsiInitiator_TargetMappings
Access type: Read-only

An array of MSIscsiInitiator_TargetMappings structures which contain information about LUN mapping.

PortalGroups

Data type: MSIscsiInitiator_PortalGroup array
Access type: Read-only

An array of MSIscsiInitiator_PortalGroup structures containing information about an initiator portal group.

ProtocolType

Data type: uint32
Access type: Read-only

Indicates the potocol used to establish the connection between the target and initiator.

TargetAlias

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

The name or description that is assigned to the target device by its host operating system. You can use this name in user interfaces, but it is not unique, you should not use it in authentication decisions.

TargetFlags

Data type: uint32
Access type: Read-only

A bitmap of flags that affect how, and under what circumstances, a target is discovered and enumerated.

Flag	Meaning
ISCSI_TARGET_FLAG_HIDE_STATIC_TARGET	The target is added to the list of static targets. However, ReportIscsiTargets does not report the target, unless it was also discovered dynamically by the iSCSI initiator, the Internet Storage Name Service (iSNS), or a SendTargets request.
ISCSI_TARGET_FLAG_MERGE_TARGET_INFORMATION	The iSCSI initiator service merges the information (if any) that it already has for this static target with the information that the caller passes to AddIscsiStaticTarget. If this flag is not set, the iSCSI initiator service overwrites the stored information with the information that the caller passes in.

TargetName

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

The name assigned to the iSCSI target.
