field and enter the size of the logical device. Specify MB, GB,
or TB as the size unit (for instance,

names can be up to 16 characters long.

You can set different user names and passwords for each logical device you
create, or you can create one user name and password and apply it to all the
logical devices you create during this configuration session (existing logical
devices remain unchanged). To apply the same CHAP secret user name and
password to all logical devices in this session, set the same user name and
password for the first logical device, then select
