Detailed Description

This cmdlet modifies settings of NetApp storage systems. When you modify storage system settings, the cmdlet automatically rescans storage systems.

To modify settings, enter the necessary parameters with new values. The parameters that you omit will remain unchanged.

Set-NetAppHost Tip:

You can specify the scope of volumes that you want to rescan with the VBRVolumeScanType parameter.

Run Get-NetAppInfrastructureVolume to get an array of volumes from NetApp storage system.

This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see the About CommonParameters section of Microsoft Docs.

Example 1

This example shows how to change the port number and protocol for connecting with NetApp storage system.

Run Get-NetAppHost to get a storage system that you want to modify. Save the result to the $storage variable.
Run Set-NetAppHost cmdlet. Set the $storage variable as the Host parameter value.

$storage = Get-NetAppHost -Name "NetApp Store"

Set-NetAppHost -Host $storage -IsHTTP $true -Port 80

Example 2

This example shows how to exclude specified NetApp storage volumes from the rescan session.

Run Get-NetAppHost to get the storage system whose settings you want to modify. Save the result to the $storage variable.
Run Get-NetAppInfrastructureVolume to get volumes that you do not want to rescan. Save the result to the $volumes variable.
Run Set-NetAppHost with the $storage and $volumes variables.

$storage = Get-NetAppHost -Name "NetApp Store"

$volumes = Get-NetAppInfrastructureVolume -Name "ISCSI Volume4", "ISCSI Volume5", "NFS Volume1"

Set-NetAppHost -Host $storage -VolumeScanType Exclude -ExcludedVolume $volumes

Example 3

This example shows shows how to rescan all volumes added to a NetApp storage system.

Run Get-NetAppHost to get the storage system whose settings you want to modify. Save the result to the $storage variable.
Run Get-NetAppInfrastructureVolume with the Host parameter to get volumes that you want to rescan. Save the result to the $volumes variable.
Run Set-NetAppHost with the $storage and $volumes variables.

$storage = Get-NetAppHost -Name "NetApp Store"

$volumes = Get-NetAppInfrastructureVolume -Host $storage

Set-NetAppHost -Host $storage -VolumeScanType Include -Included $volumes
