2 Preparing LUNs for use-The PowerVault NAS storage solution runs on a Microsoft Windows® operating system based platform. The steps to prepare LUNs for use, such as assigning a drive letter for the internal server, providing a volume name, and so on are to Windows operating system setup. The setup wizard prompts for the required information and then provides a summary screen before performing the necessary tasks to provision the storage. The LUN is now created and ready for use. Step 3 creates iSCSI Targets and associates the iSCSI Targets with the newly-created LUN. 3 Configuring NICs for iSCSI traffic in the PowerVault storage solution- You must first configure dedicated iSCSI NICs for iSCSI traffic and then create iSCSI Targets. NOTE: Create iSCSI Targets only after configuring the Discovery tab in the iSCSI Initiator To configure dedicated iSCSI NICs: a Go to PowerVault NAS Management Console→ iSCSI Target. b Right-click the iSCSI software Target and select Properties. c In the Microsoft iSCSI Software Target Properties window, go to the Network tab. All the NICs on the PowerVault NAS storage solution are listed. d Click Edit and uncheck public and private network IP address from the list. Unchecking public and private network IP addresses from the list ensures that only the dedicated iSCSI NICs are configured for iSCSI traffic. e If you have an iSNS server configured in your network, go to iSNS tab and add the iSNS server IP address. Click OK. 22 Target Details
