1. Install and configure an iSCSI initiator on the computer. Hardware and software initiators
are available from different vendors. Configure your initiator using the instructions provided
by the vendor.
Note:
Dell recommends that you visit the Technical Support website to obtain important
information about using initiators to access PS Series group volumes.
2. Make sure that the computer matches one of the volume’s access control records. To display
the records for a volume:
–
Using the CLI, enter the following command:
volume select
volume_name
access show
–
Using the GUI, expand
Volumes
in the far-left panel, select the volume name, and click
the
Access
tab.
If necessary, use the CLI or the GUI to create an access control record that the computer
will match.
3. To display the iSCSI target name for the volume:
–
Using the CLI, enter the following command:
volume select
volume_name
show
–
Using the GUI, expand
Volumes
in the far-left panel, select the volume name, and click
the
Connections
tab.
4. On the computer, use the iSCSI initiator utility to specify the group IP address as the iSCSI
discovery address. If the initiator supports the discovery process, it will return a list of iSCSI
targets that the computer can access.
If the initiator does not support discovery, you must also specify the target name and, in
some cases, the standard iSCSI port number (3260).
5. Use the iSCSI initiator utility to select the desired target and log in to the target.
When the computer connects to the iSCSI target, it sees the volume as a regular disk that can be
formatted using the normal operating system utilities. For example, you can partition the disk and
create a file system.
