Create a VLAN Copy of an iSCSI Fault Domain

To add a VLAN ID to iSCSI ports that are already in use, use an existing iSCSI fault domain as the basis for a new VLAN iSCSI fault domain.

1. If you are connected to a Data Collector, select a Storage Center from the drop-down list in the left navigation pane of Unisphere Central.
2. From the SYSTEM menu, click Ports.
   The Ports view is displayed.
3. Click the Front End Ports tab.
4. Expand iSCSI and click the fault domain link..
   The Fault Domain view is displayed.
5. In the Summary tab, click (More Actions) and select Create VLAN Copy.
   The Create VLAN Copy dialog box opens.
6. In the Name field, type a name for the fault domain.
7. Configure an IP address and gateway for the iSCSI control port in the fault domain. Servers target this IP address using iSCSI initiators, and the Storage Center redirects individual iSCSI connections to the appropriate virtual port.
   1. In the Target IPv4 Address field, type an IP address to assign to the iSCSI control port.
   2. In the Subnet Mask field, type the subnet mask for the well-known IP address.
   3. In the Gateway IPv4 Address field, type the IP address for the iSCSI network default gateway.
8. Configure VLAN tagging.
   1. In the VLAN ID field, type the VLAN ID for the fault domain. Allowed values are 1–4096.
   2. To assign a priority level to the VLAN, type a value from 0–7 in the Class of Service Priority field. 0 is best effort, 1 is the lowest priority, and 7 is the highest priority.
9. Click OK.
