i5/OS™ uses IBM® Director to locate and identify remote servers on a local area network (LAN) by communicating with the service processor of the remote server. Remote systems are identified by information stored in the remote system configuration and the service processor configuration objects on the iSeries™ server.
This is a different connection than the connection between the iSeries iSCSI target adapter and the iSCSI initiator adapter in the remote server. The LAN adapter for the service processor of the remote server must be attached to a network that is reachable by an iSeries server LAN adapter.
Both the i5/OS objects and the service processor must be configured. You can configure the discovery method used in the i5/OS network server configuration objects.
