Thread: Single or multiple iSCSI-Targets

  1. #1

    Default Single or multiple iSCSI-Targets

    Hi

    We've set up 2 DSS V7 server with 5 volumes in each of them.

    So, what is the best practice for iSCSI and why?
    Create a single target with 5 LUNs, or create 5 targets, each with only one LUN?

    Thanks

    Default

    It depends if you have multiple initiators/host for each LUN then I would create 5 targets with each having 1 LUN for each initiator. If you have one initiator for all volumes to be used then 1 target. This is more a management administration level then a performance criteria.
    All the best,
