Adopting a Device
You can adopt a foreign iSCSI Feature Pack disk for the purposes of disaster recovery.
A foreign disk is a physical device containing iSCSI LUs previously set up on a different
iSCSI Feature Pack system. You might need to adopt a disk if an iSCSI Feature Pack
system is damaged and you want to import the server's disks to a new system.
NOTICE: We highly recommend that you adopt a device into a new, clean iSCSI Feature Pack
system that does not have any LUs created.
1. Click Adopt Devices.
2. Select the device you would like to import.
3. Click OK.
You click the Rescan link to refresh the list of available devices.

Default Portal Template

Portals are access points used by hosts to communicate with the iSCSI Feature Pack. Each
portal is a combination of an IP address, port number, and port group number.
By default, the iSCSI Feature Pack assigns each new host one portal for each network
interface card (NIC) IP address used by the iSCSI Feature Pack, with the default iSCSI port
number 3260 and group 0.
The Default Portal Template screen lets you set the template that will be used when new
hosts are created. In other words, the portals listed on this screen will be offered to each new
host. You may then want to customize the portals for a specific host so that, for example,
each host uses a separate NIC or port.
To add/remove portals:
1. Select Configuration from the main iSCSI screen.
2. Select Default Portal Template.
3. To add a new portal, click Add, select an IP address, and enter a port number and port
group.
To delete a portal, click the checkbox to the left of it and click Remove.
