Create iSCSI Initiator

Syntax

userLabel = "name"

[chapSecret = securityKey]
168
Description
WWID of the HBA host port. You must put
quotation marks (" ") around the WWID.
Name to give the new HBA host port. You must put
quotation marks (" ") around the port label.
Name of the host for which you are defining an
HBA host port. You must put quotation marks (" ")
around the host name.
NOTE: An HBA host port is a physical
connection on a host adapter that resides
within a host system. An HBA host port
provides host access to the virtual disks in a
storage array. If the host bus adapter has only
one physical connection (one host port), the
terms host port and host bus adapter are
synonymous.
The identifier for the type of interface for the host
port.
You must enter SAS. If you do not enter SAS, the
command attempts to use an invalid type of
interface. A SAS selection requires an 8-byte
WWID.
