Configuring the iSNS server address using the CLI

If you are using iSCSI-attached hosts with the Lenovo Storage V series clustered system, you can use the command-line interface (CLI) to optionally configure the address for the Internet Storage Name Service (iSNS) server for the system. Host systems use the iSNS server to manage iSCSI targets and for iSCSI discovery.

1. To specify an IPv4 address for the iSCSI storage name service (SNS), enter the following CLI command:

   chsystem -isnsip sns_server_address

   where sns_server_address is the IP address of the iSCSI storage name service in IPv4 format.
2. To specify an IPv6 address for the iSCSI storage name service (SNS), enter the following CLI command:

   chsystem -isnsip_6 ipv6_sns_server_address

   where ipv6_sns_server_address is the IP address of the iSCSI storage name service in IPv6 format.
