set chap-record
Description Changes an iSCSI originators CHAP record.
You can change the records secret, mutual name, and mutual secret values. This command is
permitted whether or not CHAP is enabled.
For a login request from an initiator to a storage system, the initiator is the originator and the storage
system is the recipient. Because CHAP works during login, to make CHAP changes take effect you
must reset any active iSCSI host links.
NOTE: For information about setting up CHAP for use in a peer connection, see the topic
about creating a peer connection in the Dell EMC PowerVault ME4 Series Storage System
Administrator's Guide.
