lun portset create
Creates a new portset
Description
This command creates a new port set for FCP and iSCSI. The port set name can include a maximum of 96 characters. You can add LIFs to the new port set. If you do not add a LIF to the port set, you create an empty port set. To add LIFs to an existing port set, use the lun portset add command.
After you create a port set, you must bind the port set to an igroup so the host knows which FC or iSCSI LIFs to access. If you do not bind an igroup to a port set, and you map a LUN to an igroup, then the initiators in the igroup can access the LUN on any LIF on the Vserver.
Parameters
- -vserver <Vserver Name> - Vserver Name
- Specifies the Vserver.
- -portset <text> - Portset Name
- Specifies the name of the new port set. A port set name is a case-sensitive name that must contain one to 96 characters. Spaces are not allowed.
- [-port-name <port_name>, ...] - LIF Or TPG Name
- Specifies the name of the logical interface that you want to add to the portset you want to create.
- { [-protocol {mixed|fcp|iscsi}] - Protocol
- Specifies if the portset protocol type is fcp, iscsi, or mixed. The default is mixed.
- | [-fcp | -f [true]] - FCP
- Specifies FCP as the protocol type of the new port set.
- | [-iscsi | -i [true]]} - iSCSI
- Specifies iSCSI as the protocol type of the new port set.
