Configure iSCSI Initiator Configuration page - K2 client



This page lists the iSCSI adapter on your K2 Media Server as an iSCSI target. The K2Config application subscribes the SAN client to the iSCSI target and allocates bandwidth, based on the bandwidth values that you enter. The K2Config application keeps track of each SAN client's bandwidth, and when the total amount allowed by the K2 SAN license is consumed, the K2Config application displays an informative message and then disables your ability to add more SAN clients. For large systems the K2Config application can load balance SAN clients across multiple iSCSI targets.

If a custom K2 SAN, qualified system designers can view subnets to help assign iSCSI targets.

  1. Click Modify. The Bandwidth Input dialog box opens.

  2. Enter the channel count, bit rate, and track count per channel information according to your intended use of the K2 client. If using ChannelFlex Suite with multiple inputs and/or outputs per channel, do not enter the number of channels. Instead do the following:
    • For Number of encoder channels enter the total number of inputs.
    • For Number of recorder channels enter the total number of outputs.
  3. Click Calculate.
  4. Click Assign Portal, then OK to confirm. If you have a redundant K2 SAN, the K2Config application makes the appropriate assignment to the redundant server, as reported in the Secondary target box.
  5. Click Next.

The File System Client Configuration page opens.
