Step 9. Present LUNs to iSCSI Initiators

1.If the iSR6140 is connected in the FC fabric, make sure the FC fabric zoning is set so that FC array ports and router FC ports are in the same zone.

2.Using array management software, create all LUNs you want to present to all iSCSI initiators through this iSR6140. Present the LUNs from FC array to iSR6140 using WWPNs of this iSR6140. If you are setting up a high availability configuration that uses two iSR6140s as a pair, present the LUNs to both iSR6140s using FC WWPNs of both iSR6140s.

3.Create the iSCSI initiator list in iSR6140 using one of the following methods:

Enter the iSCSI initiator name using the Add Initiator Wizard. The system prompts you to enter the iSCSI name of an initiator.

OR

From the server with iSCSI initiators, run a discovery session for the iSCSI Port IP address of the iSR6140. This will automatically register the iSCSI Initiator names with the iSR6140. Running iSCSI discovery session on different OS environments may vary. The example below illustrates how to run iSCSI discovery session on Windows Server.

Running discovery session on Windows Server:

a.Install an iSCSI initiator on your server. This can either be a dedicated iSCSI HBA or a software initiator for Windows like the one available from www.microsoft.com.

b.Invoke the software initiator, and then specify the IP address of the iSCSI port on your iSR6140. When you select the Targets tab, a screen appears, similar to the following:
