• Enabling and disabling authentication of hosts on iSCSI targets
• Registering a host's user information on an iSCSI target
• Settings and connection results in authentication of hosts (iSCSI environments)
For more information about configuring hosts, see the documentation for the operating system and
iSCSI driver in your environment.
Authentication of iSCSI targets (performing mutual authentication)
When authentication of a host succeeds, the host performs authentication of the iSCSI target in reverse
if the host requires (mutual authentication). In authentication of iSCSI targets, when the user information
(user name and secret) of the iSCSI target specified on the iSCSI target side matches the user
information stored on the host, the host allows the iSCSI target to connect.
For more information about iSCSI target settings to perform authentication of iSCSI targets, see
Specifying an iSCSI target's user information (when performing mutual authentication)
. For more
information about configuring hosts, see the documentation for the operating system and iSCSI driver
in your environment.
NAS channel adapters
You can use XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software to check the running status of the
OSs on NAS channel adapters. Also, when a failure occurs in the OS, you can operate (restart, stop,
or start) the OS using XP LUN Configuration and Security Manager Software without going to the
array's cabinet. For instructions on checking the OS status on NAS channel adapters and operating
the OSs, see
