This command defines connectivity between a port on the local storage system and
a port on a remote target.
Connectivity between a local and a target storage system is defined between a
specific port on a local storage system and a port on the target storage system.
Each connectivity definition can be either active or inactive. The system does not
use an inactive connectivity definition. Target Connectivity is active by default. An
option is provided to de-activate (target_connectivity_deactivate) and then
re-activate (target_connectivity_activate) it, if required. Target Connectivity can be
deleted (Deleting Connectivity to a Remote Target) and a list of Target Connectivity
definitions (Listing Target Connectivity Definitions) can be displayed.
