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.
Initiator Group Configuration Overview

command to create an initiator group and one or more

Channel) name..
The command creates the initiator within the initiator group.
