Figure 56. Identity C’s iSCSI Initiator
In Figure 56, there is only one iSCSI initiator in Identity C: WWUI10.
Identities are coupled with iSCSI targets to limit iSCSI initiator access to a target’s underlying volumes. An identity can be used with more than one target and each target can have more than one identity.
