iSCSI and Celerra

I am trying to present Celerra storage via iSCSI to external hosts via 10 G IP network. I am running into an issue of iSCSI LUN size limitations of 2 TB. Is there a way to exceed this limitation without introducing more space without adding additional LUNs?

If it was purchased as CX4-480 then it typically would have Clariion ISCSI ports

If it was purchased built-in to a NS-480 it won’t – unless explicitly ordered

Or use Clariion based ISCSI

unfortunatelly no, Celerra is still limited to 2TB limit for iSCSI. If you have iSCSI ports on the SPs ..you could present more than 2TB LUNs

What configuration is required to enable iSCSI on Clariion? Is there additional hardware, software, licensing needed?
