Usage Guidelines
When you configure an iSLB initiator in a VSAN other than VSAN 1(the default VSAN), the initiator
is automatically removed from VSAN 1. For example, if you configure an iSLB initiator in VSAN 2 and
you also want it to be present in VSAN 1, you must explicitly configure the initiator in VSAN 1.
Examples
The following example assigns an iSCSI initiator to a VSAN other than the default VSAN.

switch(config)# iscsi initiator name iqn.1987-02.com.cisco.initiator
