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, Dell™ PowerVault™ NF500/NF600 storage system (Target) can
query the available Initiators from iSNS server for association.
NOTE:
In PowerVault NF500/NF600 storage solution, the current version of 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.
