Syntax Description

Configuring Initiator Groups

The third step in configuring the vSHARE system is to configure the initiator

groups (igroups) which identify the initiators (hosts) that are allowed to access a

LUN or set of LUNs.

Every initiator has a protocol-specific identifier used to access storage.

Fibre Channel initiators are identified by World-Wide Names (WWN). Fibre

Channel initiators are fixed by the appropriate HBA port.
