Description
The Add-VirtualDiskToMaskingSet cmdlet adds a virtual disk to a specified masking set and grants access to the virtual disk to all initiator IDs defined in the masking set.

Examples
Example 1: Add a virtual disk to an existing masking set
PS C:\> $maskingSet = Get-MaskingSet Cluster1MaskingSet
PS C:\> $virtualDisk = Get-VirtualDisk Volume12
PS C:\> $maskingSet | Add-VirtualDiskToMaskingSet -VirtualDisknames $virtualDisk.Name -DeviceAccesses ReadWrite
This example adds the virtual disks named Volume12 to a masking set named Cluster1MaskingSet, and sets the device access to read-write.

-PassThru
Specifies that the cmdlet should output an object representing the masking set to which it added a virtual disk. 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.

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