Editing a Target Configuration

Once you have added a target, you can edit your iSCSI target configuration or apply

other management options to the target.

Note: If you want to change the target name, you must delete the existing target and

add it again with the new target name.

To edit a target configuration:
1. From the iSCSI Target Configuration dialog box, select the target and press

<Enter>. The Edit/Ping iSCSI Target dialog box is displayed.
