Set up a Dynamic Target in the VMware Host Client
With Dynamic Discovery, each time the initiator contacts a particular iSCSI storage system, the initiator
sends the SendTargets request to the iSCSI system. The iSCSI system responds by supplying a list of
available targets to the initiator.
When you set up Dynamic Discovery, you can only add a new iSCSI system. You cannot change the IP
address, DNS name, or port number of an existing iSCSI system. To modify the parameters, delete the
existing system and add a new one.

Edit Advanced Settings for iSCSI in the VMware Host Client
The advanced iSCSI seings control such parameters as header and data digest, ARP redirection, delayed
ACK, and so on. Generally, you do not need to change these seings because your host works with the
assigned predened values.
C Do not change the advanced iSCSI seings unless you are working with the VMware support
team or otherwise have thorough information about the values to provide for the seings modication.
