SANmp Client tool:
Now that you have at least two SANmp users you will want to be able to use the SANmp- manager
iSCSI target. Add another dongle to another workstation that is on your network and install
GlobalSAN iSCSI initiator & SANmp Client to the new workstation. The install process will
require a restart x2 so make sure all workstation data has been saved.
When the workstation restarts launch GlobalSAN iSCSI initiator and mount the volume that was
converted by the admin SANmp workstation. Then launch SANmp Client and sign-in with the
credentials that were created on the Admin workstation. Now highlight the SANmp-managed
volume and press the Read/Write button. SANmp Client will reach out to the SANmp admin tool and
other devices on the network to see if the requested volume is in use. When the Client has confirmed
the volume is not in use it will mount it in your desktop. Notice that the volume icon has changed.
Other Notes
• When releasing an SANmp-managed disk for use on a different workstation it is important to
completely disconnect your disk from Global iSCSI initiator as well before the next user attempts
to mount it through SANmp Client.
• If you are experiencing any shutdown issues, specifically with El Capitan and Pro Tools, certain
features that require a restart may not take hold
