You can test the communication for an external path by performing a login test for an iSCSI target on an external storage system.

Note: If the login test fails, revise the settings of the iSCSI target so that you can log in, or delete the iSCSI target. If any iSCSI targets to which you cannot log in are registered, an attempt is made to connect to these iSCSI targets when you access an external volume, and load is applied to the storage system or network. This might cause tasks to fail.
  • Verify that the external iSCSI targets are registered.
  • Obtain the iSCSI port to use for external connections.
  • Obtain the following information about the external storage system containing the volume to use for the quorum disk:
    • Name of the iSCSI target
    • IP address
  • You must have the Storage Administrator (View Only) role.
  1. From the navigation tree, select Storage > External iSCSI Targets.
  2. Select the iSCSI port (local port) for external connections.
  3. From the inventory shown, select the checkboxes for the external iSCSI targets, and then click Login Test in the action bar.

    You can select multiple external iSCSI targets and perform the login test for those iSCSI targets at the same time.

    Note: It might take up to 1 minute to complete the login test for one external iSCSI target.
