Overwrite existing LUN: Restore the iSCSI LUN and overwrite the existing LUN on the
NAS. All the data on the original LUN will be overwritten.
Create a new LUN: Restore the iSCSI LUN to the NAS as a new LUN. Enter the name
and select the location of the new LUN. Make sure you have created at least one LUN
on the NAS before editing the default LUN policy.
Creating iSCSI LUN Snapshots
A read-only LUN snapshot can be created and mounted to an iSCSI target on the NAS for
data access from other hosts or LUN backup. The contents of the LUN snapshot will remain
the same regardless of the changes made to the original LUN. Before creating an iSCSI LUN
snapshot, make sure at least one iSCSI LUN and one iSCSI target has been created on the
NAS.
To create an iSCSI LUN snapshot, follow these steps:
1.
Go to "Storage Manager" > "LUN Backup". Click "Create a job".
2.
Select "Create a LUN Snapshot" and click "Next".
3.
Select an iSCSI LUN on the NAS. Only one snapshot can be created for each iSCSI LUN.
Click "Next".
4.
Enter a name for the LUN snapshot or use the one generated by the NAS. Select an iSCSI
target where the LUN snapshot is mapped to. Click "Next". The LUN snapshot must be
mapped to another iSCSI target different from the original one.
5.
Specify the snapshot schedule and the snapshot duration and click "Next". The snapshot
will be automatically removed when the snapshot duration is reached.
6.
The settings will be shown. Enter a name for the job or use the one generated by the
NAS. Click "Next".
7.
Click "Finish" to exit.
8.
The snapshot will be created immediately. The status and duration will be shown on the
list.
