The script in Listing 12-6 produced a listing like this:

Name Type IScsiHbaName

---- ---- ------------

192.168.111.1:3260 Send iqn.1998-01.com.vmware:esx41-35fe03...

192.168.111.1:3260 Static iqn.1998-01.com.vmware:esx41-35fe03...

Unfortunately, as we worked with this automation, we found a few problems with the Get-IScsiHbaTarget cmdlet in the PowerCLI build we used for this book (VMware vSphere PowerCLI, version 4.1). To bypass these problems and as an example of how you can use the vSphere object properties from your scripts, we provide the Get-IScsiHbaTargets function in Listing 12-7, which emulates the Get-IScsiHbaTarget cmdlet. The function also shows you if the CHAP setting is enabled for each target and if it was inherited from the CHAP settings of the parent.
