access_lists File

Purpose

Configures access control lists for the iSCSI target driver.

Description

The access_lists file is used to configure access control lists for the iSCSI target driver. You can use comments in the access_lists file. The comment character is "#", and must be the first character on the line.

This file contains one entry per target. Each entry has the following format:
target_name|lun_name iSCSI_name,iSCSI_name,...
target_name
The target ODM name on which access control is applied.
lun_name
The logical unit number (LUN) ODM name on which access control is applied.
iSCSI_name
The list of iSCSI names (iqn or eui format) of initiators that can access this target or LUN.
You can use two default keywords in this file:
all
Used for the target_name or lun_name field. It indicates that the Access Control List is the same for all targets and LUNs on the server. An entry containing all overrides other entries.
any
Used for the iSCSI_name field. It indicates that one target or LUN is visible by any initiator connecting to the server.

You can use the line continuation character backslash ( \ ) to make each entry easier to read.

Attention: If an access list grants an initiator the access to a LUN, the access list must also explicitly grant the access to the target that owns the LUN.
