create host-iscsi-name

This command registers a host alias for the iSCSI (internet Small Computer System Interface) name and the IP
address used to identify an iSCSI-type HBA (Host Bus Adapter).
Only one iSCSI name can be specified at a time. The maximum number of available definitions depends on
the number of available host interface ports and the model. This command enables an alias to be used
instead of a long iSCSI name when mapping volumes to hosts.
The following three types of parameters are used for registering an iSCSI identifier:
1. -iscsi-name. This parameter is used to specify the name that corresponds to a HBA.
2. -alias-name. This parameter is used to specify an alias for the "-iscsi-name" parameter. This parameter is only used as a
user comment and is not used for control purposes.
3. -name. This parameter is used to specify the alias name. A unique name can be used.
