Configuring the iSNS Server
iSNS Server performs the automatic discovery of iSCSI Initiators and Targets;
after you register them with iSNS Server.
• The Initiators that are registered with iSNS servers can view all Target
devices that are registered with iSNS in the Targets tab and logon to the
Targets. You do not have to configure Initiators with the IP address or DNS
name of individual Target servers in Target Portals. iSNS server performs
Target Discovery.
• Similarly, PowerVault NX1950 storage system (Target) can query the
available Initiators from iSNS server for association.
NOTE: In PowerVault NX1950 storage solution, the 3.0 iSCSI Software Target does
not query the iSNS server for registered iSCSI Initiators, during Target creation. You
have to enter the IQN name of the Initiator manually. After you create the Target, the
Target IQN is listed in iSNS Server registered device list and can be accessed by
Initiators that were added during Target creation. This issue is resolved in the
3.1 iSCSI Target.
