ON Starwind, while creating a new target, the LUN always is 0 wherever the storage is and how many and whether it is not not is a cluster. The LUN is created automatically by Starwind, and can't handle it by hands.

Is it a defect on Starwind as I have been told LUN can be set by hand? :?:

thanks,

It's not a "defect" it's by design. If you create one target and one LUN - it will be always zero. If you add more LUNs to the same target - their numbers will increment as you go.

Thank Anton for your quick response.

Could you give me detail how to add more LUNs to the same target? on Starwind, I can't find the function on Starwind, neither on VMware.
thanks again.

When you create a device and come up to the page asking about creating a new target choose adding to existing one option.

Tomorrow help guys will give you a screenshot or whatever.
