Connecting to iSCSI Drives
You can connect iSCSI drives on your ix4-300d to your computer using LenovoEMC Storage Manager or
the Microsoft software initiator. If you are using another type of software or hardware initiator, you must
use the native tools provided with your initiator to connect your iSCSI drives. Do not connect more than
one iSCSI initiator at a time to an iSCSI drive.
the Microsoft software initiator. If you are using another type of software or hardware initiator, you must
use the native tools provided with your initiator to connect your iSCSI drives. Do not connect more than
one iSCSI initiator at a time to an iSCSI drive.
Attempting to connect two iSCSI initiators to the same iSCSI drive at the same time may result in
data corruption or drive damage. The ix4300d Management Console prevents you from
connecting two iSCSI initiators to the same iSCSI drive at the same time, but if you connect to an
iSCSI drive using native tools, you may encounter this issue. You can use the Connected
Clients section to view a list of client computers connected to your ix4-300d that are running
iSCSI initiator software. On the iSCSI page, expand an iSCSI drive, then expand the Connected
Clients section. If the iSCSI drive is in use, you will see a list of connected client computers
running initiator software.
