1 Click the Storage tab.
2 In the Storage tab navigation pane, select Remote Storage Centers.
3 In the right pane, click Congure iSCSI Connection. The Congure iSCSI Connection wizard opens.
•
From a PS Group, select Actions > Replication > Congure iSCSI Connection. The Congure iSCSI Connection wizard opens.
4 Select the Storage Center or PS Group for which you want to congure an iSCSI connection, then click Next. The wizard advances to
the next page.
5 Select iSCSI controller ports and select the network speed.
a From the iSCSI Network Type drop-down menu, select the option that corresponds to the speed of the connection between
the Storage Centers.
b In the Local iSCSI Controller Ports table, select one or more iSCSI ports on the local Storage Center to use for the iSCSI
connection.
c In the Remote iSCSI Controller Ports table, select one or more iSCSI ports on the remote Storage Center orPS Group to use
for the iSCSI connection.
6 If network address translation (NAT) is performed for the connection between the Storage Centers, congure NAT settings.
NOTE: NAT port forwarding is supported only if both Storage Centers are congured for legacy port mode, or if both
Storage Centers are running version 6.5 or later and congured for virtual port mode. PS Groups do not support NAT port
forwarding.
a The Congure NAT dialog box opens.
b Congure port forwarding information for each local and remote iSCSI port.
• In virtual port mode, the NAT IP Address and NAT Public Port elds display the translated public IP address and port. Click
Change to modify these elds.
• In legacy mode, type the translated public IP address and port in the corresponding NAT IP Address and NAT Public Port
elds.
c Select the Prefer IPv6 over IPv4 for remote connection checkbox if you want to use IPv6 addresses.
d When you are nished, click OK.
7 (CHAP only) If the local iSCSI fault domain, remote iSCSI fault domain, or both, have CHAP enabled, type a shared secret in the CHAP
Secret eld.
8 (CHAP only) If you have selected fault domains on both Storage Centers that have bidirectional CHAP enabled, select the Use
Bidirectional CHAP checkbox to enable the Storage Centers to challenge the fault domains on each Storage Center for a shared
secret.
9 If replicating to a PS Group, congure the storage pool for the destination volume.
a From the Storage Pool drop-down menu, select the storage pool that the destination volume will use.
b In the Delegated Space (For Remote PS Group) eld, set the amount of space allowed for the destination volume.
NOTE
