Targets Tab

If you use the Direct Portals option the Discovery tab, the Targets of the
IP address that you provided are listed. If you use the iSNS servers option in
the Discovery tab, the Targets created in all PowerVault 500/PowerVault 600
storage systems that are registered with iSNS server are displayed.

Log On...—To gain access to the Target, the Initiator must Log On to the
Target. If only one path is available to the Target, only one step is required for
log on. Click Log On.., specify the Target name, and then click OK.
If multiple-paths to the Target are available, then you must describe each
path to the iSCSI Initiator.

To describe multiple paths to the Initiator:

1 In the Log On window, select Enable multi-path and click Advanced.

The Advanced option provides a drop-down menu with all possible source
(Initiator) IP addresses and a separate drop-down menu for all possible
Target portal addresses. In this scenario, the Target solution manages the
actual paths and IP addresses internally. Other Target solutions display
each available IP address that can be used for multi-path operations.

2 Select each desired combination of source IP address and Target IP

address and login separately to have multiple sessions for the same Target
device.
