12. Create an iSCSI LUN
An iSCSI LUN is a logical volume mapped to the iSCSI target. Select one of the
following modes to allocate the disk space to the LUN:
- Thin Provisioning: Select this option to allocate the disk space in a flexible
manner. You can allocate the disk space to the target anytime regardless of
the current storage capacity available on the NAS. Over-allocation is allowed
since the storage capacity of the NAS can be expanded by Online RAID
Capacity Expansion.
- Instant Allocation: Select this option to allocate the disk space to the LUN
instantly. This option guarantees the disk space assigned to the LUN but may
take more time to create the LUN.
Enter the LUN name and specify the LUN location (disk volume on the NAS). Enter
the capacity for the LUN. Click “Next”.
