Disconnecting the sessions with a target
You can use the iSCSI > Target Disconnect command to disconnect sessions with the target that has the specific IQN and portal address. Once you run this command, all the sessions that are connected to this target will get disconnected.
You can disconnect sessions with one target at a time.
Note:
This command takes more time to complete if workloads are running on the iSCSI interface.
To disconnect the sessions with a target
- Open a Secure Shell (SSH) session to log on to the appliance as an administrator.
- Navigate to the Main_Menu > Settings > iSCSI menu.
- Type the command Target Disconnect.
- Enter the IQN and portal address of the target that you want to disconnect.
Note the following about IQN and portal address:
The IQN can only contain numbers (0-9), letters (A-Z and a-z), colons (:), hyphens (-), and periods (.)
Example: iqn.1999-06.com.veritas:storage.lun1
The target portal address must be of the following format: <IPv4 address/hostname>[:port]. The host name can be a short name or a fully qualified domain name.
Example: 192.116.116.50 or abc:3260
- Run the command to disconnect sessions with the specific target. Type yes when the following prompt appears:
Do you want to disconnect the target session?[yes, no](no):yes
[Info] The target session has been disconnected.
