Use this screen to set the Flex-10 iSCSI connections.
iSCSI is only supported when using the following hardware:
• HP NC551i Dual-Port FlexFabric Converged Network Adapters
• HP NC551m Dual-Port FlexFabric Converged Network Adapters
• HP NC553i 10Gb 2-port FlexFabric Converged Network Adapter
• HP NC553m 10Gb 2-port FlexFabric Converged Network Adapter
• HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric 10Gb/24-port Module
• HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Module
• Any Ethernet switch
• Any target that supports the iSCSI protocol, for example, the HP LeftHand Networks 2120 with 10Gb
iSCSI (CX4 connection)
You might need to update the BIOS on the mezzanine card for iSCSI to work. For more information on the
BIOS as well as additional support hardware, see the QuickSpecs on the Installing tab of the HP BladeSystem
Technical Resources website (http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).
The following table describes the fields within the Flex-10 iSCSI Connections screen.
