Description: If cpqiScsiSsnDirection is Inbound, this object is an octet string that will contain the name of the remote initiator. If this session is a discovery session that does not specify a particular initiator, this object will contain a zero-length string.

If cpqiScsiSsnDirection is Outbound, this object will contain a zero-length string.

What is cpqiScsiSsnInitiatorName?

This read-only DisplayString holds the name of the remote initiator for an inbound session, and is a zero-length string for outbound sessions or unnamed discovery sessions. An admin reads this to identify exactly which remote client has an active session against a local target. For example, a populated value like 'iqn.1998-01.com.vmware:esxi-host3' tells the admin which specific VMware host currently holds a session open to this target.
