The iSCSIConfigurationService provides methods that allow a client to manipulate iSCSIProtocolEndpoints in an iSCSI Node. iSCSIProtocolController models the iSCSI Port. The instance of the service is scoped by an instance of ComputerSystem that represents that Network Entity. The capabilities of this service are defined in the companion class iSCSIConfigurationCapabilities.

{'Description':'The ProtocolEndpoint instance. If an iSCSI Initiator Port is being modified this will be an IPProtocolEndpoint. If an iSCSI Target Port is being modified this will be a TCPProtocolEndpoint.'}
Description
'This method provides for modification of an existing iSCSIProtocolEndpoint by associating a TCPProtocolEndpoint representing an Target NetworkPortal or an IPProtocolEndpoint instance representing an Initiator NetworkPortal to the iSCSIProtocolEndpoint. The association is persisted as an instance of BindsTo. The selected Portal endpoint must be from the same SystemSpecificCollection, which represents a Portal Group, as the endpoints currently bound to the iSCSIProtocolEndpoint. This action is intended to be reversed by the use of the intrinsic method 'DeleteInstance'.'

Description
'This method creates an iSCSI Node in the form of an instance of SCSIProtocolController. As part of the creation process a SystemDevice association is created between the new SCSIProtocolController and the scoping Network Entity (CIM_ComputerSystem) hosting this service.'

{'Description':'If this is an Initiator Port, Identifier MUST contain the ISID, if this is a Target Port, Identifier MUST contain the Target Portal Group Tag (TGPT). Each iSCSIProtocolEndpoint (iSCSI port) associated to a common SCSIProtocolController (iSCSI node) must have a unique Identifier. This field is a string that contains 12 hexadecimal digits.

{'Description':'Array of References to either TCPProtocolEndpoints representing Target NetworkPortals or IPProtocolEndpoint instances representing Initiator NetworkPortals. If TCPProtocolEndpoints are supplied each MUST be in turn associated to an instance of IPProtocolEndpoint via a BindsTo association in order to provide the Target Network Portal functionality. The selected Portal endpoints MUST be from the same SystemSpecificCollection, which represents a Portal Group.'}
{'Description':'A reference to the new iSCSIProtocolEndpoint that is created.'}
Description
'This method creates an iSCSI Port in the form of an instance of iSCSIProtocolEndpoint. As part of the creation process the iSCSIProtocolEndpoint is 'bound to' the underlying TCP or IP ProtocolEndpoints which are specified as inputs by creating instances of the BindsTo association between the new instance and those instances. In addition, an instance of SAPAvailableForElement is created between the specified SCSIProtocolController and the new instance of iSCSIProtocolEndpoint.'

{'Description':'The SCSIProtocolController instance representing the iSCSI Node that will be deleted.'}
Description
'This method deletes an instance of SCSIProtocolController respresenting an iSCSI Node. If Sessions are active on iSCSIProtocolEndpoints belonging to this node an error will be returned. If no Sessions are active the scoped iSCSIProtocolEndpoints will be deleted.'

TimeoutPeriod
datetime

{'Description':'A timeout period that specifies the maximum amount of time that the client expects the transition to the new state to take. The interval format must be used to specify the TimeoutPeriod. A value of 0 or a null parameter indicates that the client has no time requirements for the transition. If this property does not contain 0 or null and the implementation does not support this parameter, a return code of 'Use Of Timeout Parameter Not Supported' must be returned.'}
