Initiator zoning by iscsi / isns?


hi,

i got used fibre channel san storage. when create lun can share across servers grouped in zone (set in fc switch). it`s folder shared group of users in ad. so, in fc world it`s easy part.

i`d in ms world using 2012r2 servers: adds , iscsi targets. after all, ms requires iscsi disks need have iscsi initiators. hard part can`t group servers` accounts few global ad security groups (called example: zone1, 2 ...) , publish zones iscsi initiators (as can fc switch). 

my idea provide flexible storage solution can managed minimum administrative effort. because have many virtual environments in datacenter, server`s , network architecture variable (sometimes: daily). publishing each day tons of new iscsi links each iscsi targets waste of time, better thing group / team servers (just grouping computers gpo purposes).

thanks,
jerry
