Using SendTargets Discovery to Add an iSCSI Target
SendTargets discovery asks an iSCSI target to provide the list of target names that can
be logged into by the initiator. The iSCSI initiator then uses the SendTargets Discovery
option to perform the device discovery. Use this method if an iSCSI node has a large
number of targets. When adding an iSCSI target, leave the iSCSI target name option
blank, you can use the iSCSI SendTargets mechanism to add a target.
To configure an iSCSI target using the SendTargets discovery:
1. Log into the iSCSISelect utility by pressing <Ctrl+S> when prompted.
2. Select Controller Configuration and press <Enter>. A list of controllers is
displayed.
3. Select a controller and press <Enter>. The Controller Configuration menu is
displayed.

SendTargets response.
Note: Only the first 64 sessions are returned during a single discovery session.
