manual: Split out the topics of converted manpages into separate files and generate ditamap files for each manpage to avoid needing to hardcode anything in UserManual.xml. This means that the topics inside a manpage can be supressed from the toc, but otoh, they get numbered (with 4.x). The per-topic files are named by refentry/refsect1/refsect2 @id and are currently not cleaned up by 'kmk clean'. bugref:10302

| 9 | iSCSI stands for <i>Internet SCSI</i> and is a
|
|---|
| 10 | standard that supports use of the SCSI protocol over Internet
|
|---|
| 11 | (TCP/IP) connections. Especially with the advent of Gigabit
|
|---|
| 12 | Ethernet, it has become affordable to attach iSCSI storage servers
|
|---|
| 13 | simply as remote hard disks to a computer network. In iSCSI
|
|---|
| 14 | terminology, the server providing storage resources is called an
|
|---|
| 15 | <i>iSCSI target</i>, while the client connecting to
|
|---|
| 16 | the server and accessing its resources is called an
|
|---|
| 17 | <i>iSCSI initiator</i>.

| 20 | Oracle VM VirtualBox can transparently present iSCSI remote storage to a
|
|---|
| 21 | virtual machine as a virtual hard disk. The guest OS will not see
|
|---|
| 22 | any difference between a virtual disk image (VDI file) and an
|
|---|
| 23 | iSCSI target. To achieve this, Oracle VM VirtualBox has an integrated
|
|---|
| 24 | iSCSI initiator.

|
|---|
| 27 | Oracle VM VirtualBox's iSCSI support has been developed according to the
|
|---|
| 28 | iSCSI standard and should work with all standard-conforming iSCSI
|
|---|
| 29 | targets. To use an iSCSI target with Oracle VM VirtualBox, you must use
|
|---|
| 30 | the command line. See <xref href="vboxmanage-storageattach.dita"/>.
