Description
Initiator discovery finds unregistered initiator-ports on the front-end fabric and determines the associations between the
initiator ports and the target ports.
Use the ll command in initiator-ports context to display the same information for small configurations (where timeout
does not occur)
Use the export initiator-port discovery command for large configurations in which ls command might encounter
timeout limits.
Example
Discover initiator ports on another cluster:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/exports/initiator-ports> discovery --cluster cluster-2
