• 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.
• The name of the [Add iSCSI Host] function, which creates a new iSCSI host group and registers the mem-
ber hosts has changed with firmware version V10L50. The [Add iSCSI Host] function is now called the
[Add iSCSI Host Group] function.
• To change the settings of the host groups, use the procedure in "9.2.2.5 Modify Host Group" (page 463).
• To add a port to an existing host group, use the procedure in "9.2.2.5 Modify Host Group" (page 463)
.
• To change the iSCSI host information, use the procedure in "9.2.2.16 Modify iSCSI Host" (page 509)
