All defined hosts, host groups, and the default group is displayed in the

list.

NOTE:

When configuring an iSCSI storage array, including the MD3200i or

MD3220i, if a host or a host group is selected that does not have a SAS host

bus adapter (SAS HBA) host port defined, a warning dialog is displayed.

The Add button is inactive until a host group or host, LUN, and virtual

The mappings are saved. The

Topology pane and the Defined Mappings

NOTE:

Before you modify or remove a host-to-virtual disk mapping, you must stop

any data access (I/O) to the virtual disks to prevent data loss.
