services, authentication, and SNMP.

collection enables you to create snapshots or replicas of the volumes in a single operation or schedule.
•
Replication Partners — Monitors and manages replication partners.
Creating Volumes
To access storage in a PS Series group, you must create one or more storage pools and then allocate portions of the
storage pool(s) to volumes. Each volume is assigned a size, storage pool, and access controls. Volumes are seen on the
network as iSCSI targets. Only hosts with an iSCSI initiator and the correct access credentials can access a volume.
The group automatically generates an iSCSI target name for each volume. This is the name that iSCSI initiators use to
access the volume.
To create a volume:
1.
Click Volumes and Create volume.
The Create Volume-General Settings dialog box is displayed. You can specify information in the following fields:
–
Volume name —Unique name, up to 64 alphanumeric characters (including periods, hyphens, and colons),
