iSCSI Target
Your ShareCenter NAS supports multiple iSCSI targets and logical unit numbers (LUN) for storage expansion and backup
destination of servers. Before applying an iSCSI LUN, make sure at least one iSCSI LUN has been created on the NAS. iSCSI is
a Client-Server based protocol, except that the client process requesting data is called an “initiator” and the server process
serving the data is called a “target”. In an iSCSI implementation, the storage that is offered by the target appears as local disk to
the initiator. The client can make block-based operations on that storage. Since this involves formatting the disk, partitioning,
creating a file system on the disk, no more than one initiator can have read/write access to the specific iSCSI device at a time.
However, it is possible that you can mount a iSCSI device as read-only on multiple initiators.
