4.4. Storage > Logical Disks
Logical Disks are mainly applied in iSCSI service. Logical Disks also provide special
functionality such as data compression, copies, and snapshot backup. By carrying SCSI
commands over IP networks, iSCSI is used to facilitate data transfers over intranets and to
manage storage over long distances. iSCSI can be used to transmit data over local area
networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), or the Internet and can enable location-
independent data storage and retrieval.
Logical Disks are the storage spaces separately segregated for being shared over the
network as iSCSI targets. This page creates the storage spaces for use as described in
