21. Click Check .
22. When the wizard reports that the configuration check is successful, click Next .
The iSCSI Initiator Configuration page opens.
This page load balances the K2 appliance’s iSCSI connection to the K2 Storage
System. The iSCSI adapters on your K2 Media Server or servers are listed here as
iSCSI targets.
On redundant systems, if you have multiple K2 appliances, they should be
balanced between A and B.
For pre-defined K2 Storage System levels, the K2 System Configuration
application determines the iSCSI target to which each K2 appliance subscribes,
based on the bandwidth values that you enter. This enforces policies by which each
K2 appliance has sufficient bandwidth for its intended use and no individual iSCSI
target is oversubscribed.
For custom K2 Storage Systems (Level 4 or 40), qualified system designers can
view subnets to help assign iSCSI targets.
23. Click Modify .
The Bandwidth Input dialog box opens.
24. Enter the bandwidth of the K2 appliance.
Refer to the documentation for the specific type of K2 appliance to determine the
bandwidth.
25. Click Assign TOE .
The K2 System Configuration application automatically chooses an iSCSI target to
assign to the K2 appliance. A message appears that specifies the chosen iSCSI
target, but allows you to choose a different iSCSI target.
26. Respond to the message as follows:
• In most cases you should accept the iSCSI target chosen by the K2 System
Configuration application. Click Yes , then OK to continue.
• If your system design specifies a different iSCSI target, click No , then select the
iSCSI target on the iSCSI Initiator Configuration page.
27.Click Next .
The Completing the Configuration Wizard page opens.
28.Click Finish . The K2 appliance restarts and the wizard closes.
Identifying K2 appliance software versions
In the K2 System Configuration application tree view, open the node for the K2
appliance. This exposes the nodes for individual configuration pages. Select the
Software configuration page to view software version information. To check for
recent changes in software, click the Check button.
Modifying K2 appliance control network settings
