Use single iscsi target with multiple LUN

Post by gammastudio »

Hi all,
I mapped a LUN to ISCSI target and, with windows ISCSI initiator, mapped the ISCSI target on windows. Now I've a disk mapped on server (4TB).
The goal is expand this disk by adding a LUN to the ISCSI target but, if I add a LUN, Windows adds a new disk and no new space for the existing disk.

Now, I can add multiple LUN to ISCSI target and show the added space as an existing disk extension?

NOW
qnap-iscsi-targget-nnnnnnnnn
|
|___ LUN 1 4TB WINDOWS disk 4TB

AFTER ADDING LUN
qnap-iscsi-targget-nnnnnnnnn
|
|___ LUN 1 4TB
|___ LUN 2 1TB WINDOWS disk 4TB
WINDOWS disk 1TB
GOAL
qnap-iscsi-targget-nnnnnnnnn
|
|___ LUN 1 4TB
|___ LUN 2 1TB WINDOWS disk 5TB

Thank's

Expand the LUN then, don't add another LUN.
