5. To configure the fault domains and ports, click the Configure Embedded iSCSI Ports link on the Configuration Complete
page of the Discover and Configure Uninitialized SCv2000 Series Storage Centers wizard.
Next steps
Install or enable MPIO on the host servers.
NOTE: After the Storage Center configuration is complete, run the host access wizard to configure host server access
and apply MPIO best practices.
