I am new to the SAN environment, and most especially to the iSCSI way of doing things. I have the iSCSI protocol enabled on my filer, and I have the Microsoft iSCSI initiator downloaded and installed on my PC. From the filer, I have created a couple LUNs on my filer, I have created igroups, mapped the LUNs to the igroups, set the create_ucode option to on, and started the iSCSI service. On the Windows system, I have added the target portal, logged on, and I can see an active session. I think I have all the basics under control. What I can't seem to figure out is how the LUNs now show up as being somehow connected to my Windows computer. I'm sure I've missed something, but I can't figure out what. I've tried reading the "ONTAP SysAdmin Block Access Management Guide" and working through the examples step by step, still to no avail. Some details:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
