Description
The Add-InitiatorIdToMaskingSet cmdlet adds an initiator ID to an existing masking set, granting the host associated with the initiator ID access to the virtual disk and target port resources defined in the masking set.

Examples
Example 1: Adding an InitiatorID to a masking set by masking set object
PS C:\> $fcPorts = Get-InitiatorPort -CimSession Srv1 -ConnectionType FibreChannel
PS C:\> $maskingSet = Get-MaskingSet Cluster1MaskingSet
PS C:\> $fcPorts.NodeAddress 2000001b328d33cd2001001b32ad33cd
PS C:\> $maskingSet | Add-InitiatorIdToMaskingSet -InitiatorIds $fcPorts.NodeAddress
This example shows getting Fibre Channel initiator ports from the Srv1 computer, then getting the masking set object for the Cluster1MaskingSet, then enabling Srv1 access to all virtual disks defined in the masking set.

-PassThru
Specifies that the cmdlet should output an object representing the masking set to which it added an initiator ID. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.
If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer.
The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Outputs
CimInstance
If you specify the Passthru parameter, this cmdlet outputs an object that represents the masking set to which you added an initiator ID.
Notes
- When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
