Accelerated iSCSI application examples

Administrators can consolidate storage, enhance manageability, and enable iSCSI boot (also called ‗boot from SAN').

HP Accelerated iSCSI Licensing Pack for 1GbE network adapters

NC373F, NC373T, and NC382T option kits have always included Accelerated iSCSI as a standard feature. As of the

publication of this article, the DL385 G5p, DL385 G6, DL360 G6, and DL380 G6 ProLiant servers are shipping as ‖iSCSI

ready,‖ meaning that licensing for Accelerated iSCSI is no longer required on these platforms.

An Accelerated iSCSI Pack license is still required in older ProLiant servers with NC 370i, NC371i, and NC373i embedded

multifunction server adapters.

Users are required to download HP Accelerated iSCSI drivers for all compatible multifunction server adapters. Table 2-1

identifies the most current component packs for accelerated iSCSI drivers.
