Nutanix Volumes uses IQN-based authorization to control access to volumes. The administrator must specify the IQN of the host that needs to access the volume when creating or editing the volume.If the host's IQN is not authorized, it will not be able to see the target in the MS iSCSI Initiator3.

I agree with Louvenia. The IQN is the unique identifier for the host, and if it's not authorized, the targets won't be visible. That's definitely the issue here.

I'm not sure, but I think option A could also be a possibility if the host's IP address is not authorized to access the volume.

The most likely cause is option D. The host's IQN is not authorized to access the volume. Without the correct IQN authorization, the target won't be visible on the host.
