Setting configuration settings
To configure iSCSI target settings:
1. Use the iscsiadm command to add the mpx100/100b iSCSI port IP addresses:
iscsiadm add discovery-address 33.33.66.65
NOTE:
The iSCSI Initiator must discover all targets presented by each mpx100/100b iSCSI port
used in a multipath configuration.
