What must be done to enable hosts to access newly created LUNs?

Explanation:
Access to new LUNs is controlled by mapping them to an initiator group (igroup). An igroup specifies which host initiators (WWPNs for Fibre Channel or IQNs for iSCSI) are allowed to access the LUNs assigned to that igroup. Creating a LUN simply stores it on the array; it isn’t visible to any host until it’s mapped to an igroup. To enable access, map the LUN to an igroup that includes the hosts that should see it (or add the hosts’ initiators to the appropriate igroup). The other options don’t enable access: initializing a new cluster isn’t about per-LUN visibility, deleting the igroup would remove access, and changing the LUN type is not what controls host access.
