The host does not have initiators logged into the storage system

[omoyano]

Hi,

I have an EMC unity 300 Unisphere software version 4.2.1.95

I have two host (W2012R2)working fine (lun presented,etc..). For example SWPHYP01:

Now, I need to add two new servers (2 Virtual machines). I configured the network and both VM(swpsql03 and swpsql04) ping the Ip Storage system but I can't add or configure initiators properly. For example swpsql03:

I need to install something to the VM? Unisphere Client?

I think I have to configure SP's? But how with the new's IP?

Someone can help me

Thanks a lot!!

Have you configured the software iSCSI initiator on the hosts to point at the target IPs on the Unity array?

[omoyano]

Yes of course and I find the unit.

But all inactive

Take a look at the below white paper - the iSCSI section contains a detailed process for setting up the Windows host

When you setup iSCSI on the Windows host you want to not use the quick setup - that misses some important steps.
