Folks, I have gone through various articles on setting up iSCSI initiator and have successfully managed to share an iSCSI volume following the steps. This was a simple test scenario. Now, I am trying to set up a specific scenario but I am confused on proper relationship between various terms that are used. I would appreciate your help in making me understand the relationship between the following terms:
- Volume - LU - Target - Target Group - Target Portal Group - Host Group - View As I understand: 1. There is a one-to-one relationship between a volume and its LU. 2. A target group consists of targets and a host group consists of hosts. 2. A view consists of one host group, one target group, and one or more LUs. What I don't understand: 1. At first, I thought there is a one-to-one relationship between an LU and a target. However, this doesn't seem to be the case. Why would you need more than one target in a target group? 2. Where does the target portal group fit in? In my scenario, I would like to share volumes v1 and v2 with hosts h1 and h2. I would also like to limit the network to go through ip addresses p1 and p2 only. Can someone please give me just the broad steps;'' Thank you in advance for your help.
