|
|
<p>A Windows server may have multiple physical iSCSI HBA ports. An iSCSI
|
|
HBA port may carry traffic for iSeries™ storage paths, virtual Ethernet networks,
|
|
or both. A number of factors influence the nature of the traffic that flows
|
|
through each iSCSI HBA port on the Windows server.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">IP addresses</span></p>
|
|
<p>iSCSI HBA ports may have a SCSI IP address, a LAN IP address, or both.
|
|
A port with a SCSI IP address is a candidate for carrying storage traffic.
|
|
A port with a LAN IP address is a candidate for carrying virtual Ethernet
|
|
traffic.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Boot storage configuration</span></p>
|
|
<p>You select the iSCSI HBA port used to boot Windows with the CTRL-Q utility.
|
|
After Windows has booted, the selected iSCSI HBA port will continue to provide
|
|
a connection to the iSeries storage path that corresponds to the system drive.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Automatically allocating iSCSI HBA ports to virtual Ethernet
|
|
and non-boot storage paths</span></p>
|
|
<p>The Windows environment on iSeries includes programs running in Windows
|
|
that automatically read the i5/OS™ objects that contain the server configuration
|
|
information. The iSCSI HBAs for iSeries are configured in the i5/OS objects, but
|
|
iSCSI HBA ports for the hosted system are not. Instead, the programs automatically
|
|
allocate iSCSI HBA ports to virtual Ethernet and non-boot storage paths.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Manually allocating a virtual Ethernet adapter to a physical
|
|
iSCSI HBA port</span></p>
|
|
<p>If you want to override automatic allocation, you can manually allocate
|
|
an iSCSI HBA port by performing the following steps at the Windows console.</p>
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
|
<li>Navigate to the <span class="bold">Network Connections Window</span>.</li>
|
|
<li>Double click the <span class="bold">IBM® iSeries Virtual Ethernet x</span> adapter that
|
|
you want to configure.</li>
|
|
<li>Click <span class="bold">Properties</span>.</li>
|
|
<li>Click <span class="bold">Configure</span>.</li>
|
|
<li>Click <span class="bold">Advanced</span>.</li>
|
|
<li>Click <span class="bold">Initiator LAN IP Address</span>.</li>
|
|
<li>Enter the IP address of the iSCSI HBA port in Windows that you want the
|
|
virtual Ethernet adapter to use for its physical connection.</li></ol><img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /><img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" />
