MSFT_InitiatorId class
Represents an initiator identifier.
This object represents the storage subsystem's view of an initiator port. This is used in conjunction with a target port to establish which initiator port is allowed access to the subsystem's virtual disks.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code.
