For base volumes, the minimum volume reserve cannot be less than 10 percent. These parameters have the same effect as the base volume provisioning parameters, but apply to differencing volumes. Normally the HPC server maps a volume to a given node, which causes an ACL to be set on the volume. In some cases this might cause problems, particularly if the HBA is not using the IQN string the HPC Server has assigned to it during boot. Selecting this option will cause all volumes created by the iSCSI Provider to be assigned an unrestricted ACL, meaning that any initiator will be able to connect. You should only enable this option if you are experiencing authorization failures when nodes attempt to log in to their assigned volumes. 60 Use the HPC iSCSI Provider
