iSCSI TARGET

The iSCSI SAN protocol sends and receives SCSI commands over

IP networks, making remote data storage facilities appear as local

disks. Servers running iSCSI initiator software can use the DataGuard

Appliance to access disk volumes. Use the iSCSI settings menu to

conﬁgure these services.

Every Imation DataGuard Appliance supports use of iSCSI, functioning

as a target or initiator. The R4 and T5R both support iSCSI boot

service. The iSCSI features can be used with DHCP service and PXE to

provide full-service boot up for properly equipped clients.
