The following table lists the differences in the settings and the operations between conventional FC-SCSI and NVMe-oF. For iSCSI, each setting is configured using management software or CCI. For NVMe-oF, each setting is configured using CCI.

FC-SCSI NVMe-oF
  • Create a host group under a Fibre Channel port and add an LDEV as a LUN.
  • The host logs in to the Fibre Channel port (FCP target), and then accesses the LUN.
  • Create the NVM subsystem and assign a Fibre Channel port.
  • Add an LDEV as a namespace to the NVM subsystem.
  • The host logs in to the Fibre Channel port (NVMe target), establishes the connection to the NVM subsystem, and then accesses the namespace.
