Connecting a Computer to a Volume
When you create a volume, the PS Series group automatically generates an iSCSI target name, with the volume
name appended to the end of the target name. Each volume appears on the network as an iSCSI target.
An example of an iSCSI target name for a volume named dbvol is as follows:
iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic.5-4a0900-2f00000-007eca92d654f160-dbvol
To connect a computer to a volume:
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 web site to obtain important information about
using initiators to access group volumes.
2.

a volume:
