Parameters

Parameter	Description
`initiatorName`	The name of the iSCSI initiator for which session information is desired. Enclose the iSCSI initiator name in double quotation marks (“ ”). The name and quotation marks must also be enclosed in either square brackets ([ ]) or angle brackets (< >). If the name is longer than 30 characters, the angle brackets must be used.
`targetName`	The name of the iSCSI target for which session information is desired. Enclose the iSCSI target name in double quotation marks (“ ”). The name and quotation marks must also be enclosed in either square brackets ([ ]) or angle brackets (< >). If the name is longer than 30 characters, the angle brackets must be used.

NOTE: This command can be entered without defining any arguments, i.e. show iscsiSessions.
When the command is entered without arguments, the information displayed is for all active iSCSI sessions. To limit the information displayed, enter a specific iSCSI initiator or a specific iSCSI target. The command then displays only information about that particular iSCSI initiator or iSCSI target session.
