Description
The New-VMSan cmdlet creates a new virtual storage area network (SAN) on a Hyper-V host.
Examples
Example 1
PS C:\>New-VMSan -Name Production -Note "Production SAN" -WorldWideNodeName C003FF0000FFFF00 -WorldWidePortName C003FF5778E50002
Creates a new virtual storage area network (SAN) with the specified Name, Note, WorldWideNodeName, and WorldWidePortName.
Parameters
-ComputerName
Specifies the friendly name of a Hyper-V host on which the new virtual storage area network (SAN) is to be created. NetBIOS names, IP addresses, and fully-qualified domain names are allowable. The default is the local computer - use "localhost" or a dot (".") to specify the local computer explicitly.
