Prev Next

Add an external iSCSI device to increase data storage capacity.

  1. On the system navigation tree, select the ELM, then click the Properties icon. GUID-F191D568-8B93-4D2C-9BFC-F1342FC407BD-low.png

  2. Click Data Storage.

  3. On the iSCSI tab, click Add.

  4. Enter the information requested, then click OK.

    If the connection is successful, the system adds the device and its IQNs to the iSCSI Configuration list and Device Type list on Add Storage Device .

    Note

    Once an IQN begins storing ELM logs, you can't delete the iSCSI target. Due to this limitation, set up your iSCSI target with sufficient space for ELM storage.

  5. Before using an IQN for ELM storage, select it on the list, then click Format.

  6. To check its status as it is formatting, click Check Status.

  7. To discover or rediscover the IQNs, click the iSCSI device, then click Discover.

    Important

    Attempts to assign more than one device to an IQN can result in data loss.
