3.

In the Target name box, enter the iSCSI target name.

In the Target name box, the initial value in iqn format appears as a default value. iSCSI target
names must be specified in either of the following formats:

• eui format:

An IEEE 64-bit Extended Unique Identifier used to specify an iSCSI name. The iSCSI name
begins with eui. and is followed by the ID found by the vendor in EUI-64 format similar to the
World Wide Name.
Example: eui.02004567A425678D

• iqn format:

The iSCSI Qualified Name format used to specify an iSCSI name. For more information about
specifying iSCSI names using this format, see the iSCSI-related documentation.
If a host is connected to an iSCSI port, XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software
automatically displays the iSCSI name in iqn format. iSCSI names can include 0 (zero) to 9,
and a to f (letters are case-insensitive).
Example: iqn.2006.01.com.hp:iscsi-r500:model-xxx:sn-xxxxxx:lun00

The length of an iSCSI name must be 20 characters in eui format, and up to 223 characters in
iqn format. iSCSI names can include letters, numbers, periods (.), hyphens (-), and colons (:); but
cannot include double-byte characters. iSCSI names are case-insensitive.

4.

In the Target alias box, enter the iSCSI target's alias.

iSCSI target aliases can include letters, numbers, periods (.), hyphens (-), and colons (:); but
cannot include double-byte characters. iSCSI target aliases are case-sensitive. An iSCSI target
alias can consist of up to 32 characters

5.

In the Host Mode list, select a host mode. When selecting a host mode, you must consider the
platform and other factors (for more information, see

Table 15

).

CAUTION:

Do not select Reserve from the list. Reserve indicates that the host mode is not currently
supported.
