Configure network connections using SANtricity System Manager - Linux (iSER over InfiniBand)
If your configuration uses the iSER over InfiniBand protocol, perform the steps in this section to configure network connections.
-
From System Manager, go to Settings System Configure iSER over Infiniband Ports. Refer to the System Manager online help for further instructions.
Put the array iSCSI addresses on the same subnet as the host port(s) you will use to create iSCSI sessions. For addresses, see your iSER worksheet.
-
Record the IQN.
This information might be necessary when you create iSER sessions from operating systems that do not support send targets discovery. Enter this information in the iSER worksheet.
