NOTE
For initial OS installation to a blank iSCSI target LUN from a CD/DVD-ROM
or mounted bootable OS installation image, set
Boot to iSCSI Target
to
One Time Disabled
. This causes the system not to boot from the configured
iSCSI target after establishing a successful login and connection. This
setting will revert to
Enabled
after the next system reboot.
Enabled
means
to connect to an iSCSI target and attempt to boot from it.
Disabled
means to
connect to an iSCSI target and not boot from that device, but instead hand
off the boot vector to the next bootable device in the boot sequence.
NOTE
Carefully enter the IP address. There is no error-checking performed against
the IP address to check for duplicates or incorrect segment/network
assignment.
