Changing The Iscsi Target Identification; Changing The Iscsi Target Discovery Settings - Dell POWERVAULT MD3620I Owner's Manual

Changing the iSCSI Target Identification

You cannot change the iSCSI target name, but you can associate an alias with
the target for simpler identification. Aliases are useful because the iSCSI
target names are not intuitive. Provide an iSCSI target alias that is
meaningful and easy to remember.
To change the iSCSI target identification:
1 In the AMW, select the Setup tab.
2 Select Manage iSCSI Settings.
The Manage iSCSI Settings window is displayed.
3 Select the Target Identification tab.
4 Type the alias in iSCSI target alias.
5 Click OK.
NOTE:
Aliases can contain up to 30 characters. Aliases can include letters,
numbers, and the special characters underscore (_), minus (-), and pound sign (#).
No other special characters are permitted.
NOTE:
Open iSCSI (which is used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server 10 with SP1) does not support using target alias.

Changing the iSCSI Target Discovery Settings

To change the iSCSI target discovery settings:
1 In the AMW, select the Setup tab.

The Manage iSCSI Settings window is displayed.
3 Select the Target Discovery tab.
4 Select Use iSNS to activate iSCSI target discovery.
To activate iSCSI target discovery, you can use one of the following
methods:

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). You can also refresh
the DHCP.
