every iSCSI volume inside an SVM can be accessed via every iSCSI LIF on that SVM. Accessibility to that LIF on the target (NetApp) from the server (initiator) is based on network reachability, and then igroup mapping.

 

What are you trying to do/find out/stop?

 

Hope this helps.

The svm created a volume and has multiple iscsi LIFs. Is the volume directly related to the iscis LIF? Or indirect relationship ,Or it's not important. It's OK to use any one of the iscsi LIFs

It's ok to use any iSCSI LIF, unless you've set up selective LUN mapping or portsets as detailed here - https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/san-admin/create-port-sets-binding-igroups-task.html
