Deploying iSCSI initiators

.

Deploying iSCSI initiators

iSCSI initiators are required to communicate with the iSCSI targets (VLS devices) on the VLS. Each client

that uses the VLS must be equipped with a software initiator, such as the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator,

or an iSCSI storage HBA (for example, the QLA4050C and QLA4052C).
If you are using Backup Exec software version 10.x or older, you will need an iSCSI card in order to

use the appliance; otherwise, a software iSCSI initiator will work.
If you are using iSCSI HBAs, install them and the associated software using the manufacturer’s instructions.
