must be installed ahead of time on the host. The cable port on the storage

system is called a port (P) on a channel adapter (CHA) used for iSCSI

connections.

A logical unit (LU), which lies in a storage system, is either an input target or

an output target to or from a host. The areas within an LU are called Devs.

A route that connects a host to a Dev in an LU is called a path.

HDLM assigns a unique ID to each management-target path. This ID is called

AutoPATH_ID. Sometimes, the path is also just simply called a management

target.
