The LUNs are created using the “Management Group, Clusters and Volumes” wizard as described above in step 2.
-
To make the volumes ready to use, they must be assigned to a host and appropriate security applied. The “Access Volume Wizard” is run to complete this process. This step can be run directly at the conclusion of the previous wizard from step 2 above.
A volume list provides the association between the volume and a host. After the first volume has been associated with a host, other volumes can be added to the volume list, and these volumes are automatically associated with the same host.
The authentication group provides the information about the hosts that will access the volumes in this volume list. In this case, the name of the host is used as the name of the authentication group.
The iSCSI initiator name of the host is provided, along with any desired load balancing.
This wizard can be repeated for additional volume lists or host information.
