Using iSCSI 37

In the confirmation window, type
yes
to confirm that you want to end
the iSCSI session, and then click
OK
.
NOTE: If you end a session, any corresponding connections terminate the link
between the host and the storage array, and the data on the storage array is
no longer available.
NOTE: When a session is manually terminated using the MD Storage
Manager, the iSCSI initiator software will automatically attempt to re-
establish the terminated connection to the storage array. This may cause an
error message.
