5.3.5 Creating iSCSI Target Nodes
After you create one or more volumes, iSCSI initiators, and LAGs, you have all the prerequisites
to create an iSCSI target node. As you create iSCSI target nodes, record the information in
Table
D-5 on page
170.
To create an iSCSI target node, use the following procedure.
1. In the Logical Resources tab, click Target Resources or Network Entities.
2. Perform one of the following steps:
– On the iSCSI menu, click Create iSCSI Target Node.
– Right-click and click Create iSCSI Target Node.
Either step starts the Create iSCSI Node Wizard and displays the Enter iSCSI Node Information
screen (see
Figure 5-29).

3. Complete the fields in the screen:
– iSCSI Node Alias (optional). An alias string can also be associated with an iSCSI node. The
alias lets an organization associate a user-friendly string with the iSCSI name.
– Enable CHAP Secret (optional). To use CHAP authentication when connecting to an iSCSI
target, check this box to enable the CHAP secret. Then, in the CHAP Secret field (see
Figure 5-30), type the password that will be used by the target to authenticate an
initiator.
