Adding static iSCSI targets

Hi, I am attempting to add a few iSCSI targets to our hosts via vSphere PowerCLI.

I have an EqualLogic group setup and I already have several static iSCSI volmes mapped for datastores.  I need to add a handful more to each host.

But every time I attempt to use the new-iscsihbatarget cmdlet I get an error saying the target already exists.. which is, of course, true.  My EqualLogic group (target) does already exists with several different volumes already mapped.

I am looking for a way to add additional volumes statically from the same group without getting the error returned.

Has anyone else done this?

thanks in advance.

Thanks for the redirect.

This will work as a work around.  It would be ideal if the cmdlet worked like the GUI does as far as being able to add volumes on the same iscsi target.

thanks again!
