Setting up iSCSI Target Gateway Services 14 FIGURE 83 Discovery Domain group About Discovery Domains (DD) In the Create DD wizard you can configure the DD, add DDs to DDSets, and view the confirmation report. NOTE When you create new DDs, you specify a DD name, but you cannot edit or change the name when you edit the DDs. When you launch the DD or DDSet wizard, you can add or remove virtual targets to the selected DD or DDSet. The wizard displays all available initiators and targets grouped by initiators and targets on the left side. Depending on how the wizard is launched, the right side will be blank or list current members of the DD being used: • When the wizard is launched using Create, the list at the right is blank. • When the wizard is launched using Edit, the list at the right displays current members of the DD being viewed. Discovery domains can be created with virtual targets, iSCSI initiators, or both. Web Tools Administrator's Guide 181 53-1000606-02
