Configuration Tab
SCSI Target Tab
The SCSI Target tab is designed for the configuration of the Target part of the SCSI interface.
The SCSI Target is an intermediary between the logical library (configured by the Scalar DLC) and the
SCSI. This intermediary requires a configuration that is executed into two steps. First, the SCSI target must
be configured. Second, the Scalar DLC SCSI Client(s) must be created and assigned to the appropriate
logical libraries. The fist step is executed here. The second step is executed via the Clients tab. Refer to
SCSI Client
on page 164.
The SCSI client (either a person or a software application) connects to the Scalar DLC via the LUN object
that is shown to it as a part of the Target on a SCSI bus. One LUN may contain one client (SCSI Client).
The Target always contains LUN 0 and may contain other LUNs; the number is limited by the SCSI HBA
properties. All initiators of the SCSI bus may use the LUN configured for that bus. The physical connection
is established via the host bus adapter (this hardware is called SCSI Adapter, the model of adapter does
not matter if it is supported by the Scalar DLC software).
Table 1
on page 6 describes the target adapters
the Scalar DLC software currently supports.
The host bus adapter sends and receives commands via the channels called SCSI Ports. Depending on the
command stream direction, the ports are operating either in Initiator or Target mode (called Initiator ports or
Target ports). The Scalar DLC works with the Target ports only, the initiator mode is not used for the port
configured as Target. The configuration of the Target mode for the SCSI Ports is executed via the SCSI
Target Port Tool (refer to
SCSI Target Port Tool
on page 233).
The Targets and LUNs are created manually. After the LUN is created, a SCSI client can be added as an
intermediary between the logical library and the LUN object that represents an initiator of the SCSI bus (it
can be either a user or a software application).
Table below shows the icons that represents the SCSI Target tab objects.

Note
The new ROBAR Client is functional immediately after creation. No Scalar DLC service
restart is required.
Note
This tab is accessible only if the Scalar DLC SCSI Client component is installed.
