Attaching volumes to target groups

Prerequisites

To add a volume as a LUN to a target group

Admin panel

  1. Open Storage services > Block storage > Target groups, click the ellipsis icon of the desired target group, and then click Add LUNs.
  2. In the Attach window, select volumes to attach to the target group (create them if needed), and then click Attach.

Alternatively, you can do the same on the Volumes tab:

  1. Click the ellipsis icon of the desired volume then click Attach.
  2. In the Attach window, select a target group, and then click Attach.

Command-line interface

Use the following command:

vinfra service block-storage target-group volume attach [--lun <lun>] <target-group> <name>
--lun <lun>
Lun ID
<target-group>
Target group name or ID
<name>
Volume name or ID

For example, to attach the volume vol1 to the target group tg1 as LUN 0, run:

# vinfra service block-storage target-group volume attach --lun 0 tg1 vol1

The attached volume will appear in the vinfra service block-storage target-group volume list output:

# vinfra service block-storage target-group volume list tg1
