Depending on the device, the necessary preparations are as follows:
- For native iSCSI storage devices, the iSCSI capabilities must be enabled.
- For storage devices that do not have native iSCSI capabilities, the device must be configured in a Windows Server environment. For more information, see BVMS - Configuring Microsoft iSCSI target.
