7. 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’.
