Hello to all the pros and experts out there in the community, I am reaching out for assistance here.
I am trying to create an igroup and map it to an initiator, I keep getting errors which means, I am doing something wrong.
QUESTION:
Can I use any of the initiator group names that I see when I run ( igroup show) or, can I just pick any name or use the Hostname of the Windows Server that will access the Volume?.
Is the iqn: from the server that will access the Volume I created or, can I use any of the iqn that is associated with the igroup names I see
On my command below, I am trying to use EXCHANGE, JONHDOE for igroup names as an example. I also tried to use one of the igroup names when I do igroup show but, it says, it already exist.
These are my errors:
lun igroup create -vserver vs1 -igroup JohnDoe -protocol iscsi -ostype windows_2008 -initiator iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft: hzda20ufs1.mi.di.boy.mil

I LIKE TO CREATE THE IGROUP AND MAP THE LUN BUT, I AM NOT SURE WHICH IQN I NEED TO USE OR, IF I CAN JUST USE, either the iqn from the Server that will access the LUN of an existing ign that I see when i run igroup show.
Thnaks in advance to everyone out there for your input and assistance
