Refer to "User's Guide -Server Connection-" for each OS type to assign an appropriate host response to the
host that is to be registered. The host response configures the operation mode which is appropriate to the
host.
If an appropriate host response is not configured, the path may not be switched correctly or the volume

Unlike GUI, CLI can register two iSCSI hosts that have the same iSCSI name by setting an IP address for one
of these iSCSI hosts and by not setting an IP address for the other iSCSI host. However, if iSCSI hosts are
registered in the ETERNUS DX Disk storage system in this way, iSCSI hosts cannot be added using GUI.
Avoid this configuration when using GUI and CLI together. If both iSCSI hosts already exist, use CLI to
specify an IP address for the iSCSI host without the IP address.
