Do you want to allow simultaneous access to this volume from more than one iSCSI initiator?
Yes Allows multiple hosts access to the volume. In a shared storage environment, you
must control computer access to iSCSI targets (volumes and snapshots), because
multiple computers writing to a target in an uncoordinated manner might result in
volume corruption.
Some environments might need multihost access to a target. You can enable
multihost access to a target if you meet any of the following conditions:
• Your cluster environment gives the initiators on each cluster computer a
dierent IQN, and the environment can manage multiple connections to a target.
For example, the environment uses a Distributed Lock Manager or SCSI
reservations.
• Your multipathing solution does not use the same IQN on all initiators, and you
cannot modify the names to be the same.
• You use an environment, such as a virtual server, that can manage multiple
connections to the same iSCSI target (for example, through SCSI reservations).
• Initiators on a single computer do not use the same IQN.

No Does not allow simultaneous access to the volume Alt+O
