2.1 Product Overview
Based on the StoneFusion operating system, the ISC delivers iSCSI target volumes to hosts over
TCP connections in an Ethernet network. ISC also offers Network Attached Storage (NAS)
which allows multiple hosts/users share files. Configuring and managing ISC is accomplished
using a browser-based graphical user interface (GUI) resident in the ISC. Storage resources are
connected to the ISC through either internal drives or coming from one or more expansion boxes
connected to the external SAS port (16-bay, 24-bay and 36-bay ISC appliances only). The
system administrator uses the graphical user interface to allocate blocks of storage to create the
iSCSI target volumes and authorizes their use by individual host systems.
