4.5 Adding Disk Units

Please select “setup” Æ “target manager” and then “volumes” on the left page. After selecting “volumes” you will find a list of all logical units. To add a new unit to the iSCSI, please click “Add”. After the initializing procedure, the status of the unit will change from the “Add” button into “in use, vg0”.

Please note that you can expand the storage capacity by adding new disk drives. In the “Unit Manager” Function Open-E iSCSI will show both “in use” and “new units”. In order to add a new unit to the Volume Group (vg0), please simply click 'Add' after which Open-E iSCSI page will be restarted (see below).
