Configuring the Intel iSCSI Boot Menu

instructions, see the Intel iSCSI Boot User Guide.

Boot to a bootable MS-DOS®diskette drive or a bootable USB key and run the iSCSI DOS utility using the following commands:

ISCSIUTL -ALL -FLASHENABLE ISCSIUTL -ALL –UP

For additional help, type ISCSIUTL -?at a command prompt.

2Boot into the Intel iSCSI Boot Setup menu. For more information, see the Firmware Setup section in the Intel iSCSI Boot User Guide.

a Configure one NIC as Primary.

b Enter the initiator name, IP address, subnet, and gateway of the host that you recorded in step 1 of "Configuring the PowerVault MD3000i Storage Array" on page 15.

c Enter the IQN and IP address of the target.

d Retain the default values of the port number as 3260 and LUN number as 0, unless you need to change them.
