Term Explanation
Thin Provisioning: Thin Provisioning is a method for optimizing storage utilization by allocating storage space
in a dynamic and on-demand manner. This setting is only available for iSCSI LUN (regular files).
iSCSI Target Mapping: Map the iSCSI LUN to one or more iSCSI Targets.
To remove an iSCSI LUN:
By removing an iSCSI LUN, all data on the iSCSI LUN will be deleted. The connection between the iSCSI LUN
and any mapped iSCSI Target will also be lost.
1 Select the iSCSI LUN you'd like to remove.
2 Click Remove.
3 Click Cancel to abort or OK to confirm.
To edit an iSCSI LUN:
1 Select the iSCSI LUN you'd like to edit.
2 Click Edit.
3 Edit the Properties and Mapping to your preference.
4 Click OK to save the settings.
Note: To avoid data loss when editing iSCSI LUN capacity, you can only make it larger than the current size.
