To set up a quorum disk, register information about an iSCSI target on an external storage system to the iSCSI port (local port) for external connections. When CHAP authentication is set for the iSCSI target, the CHAP authentication information is registered by this operation at the same time and is also used for authentication during communications.

  • Make sure that a physical path to the external storage system exists containing the volume to use for the quorum disk.
  • Check the iSCSI port to use for external connections.
  • Check the following information about the external storage system containing the volume to use for the quorum disk:
    • Name of the iSCSI target
    • IP address
    • TCP port number
  • Make sure that the user performing the procedure has been assigned the Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role.
