Add user if needed (i.e. if not already available in UI)

In Services > SAN > Groups

Add group.

Add Target created earlier, click add.

Then click Users for the newly created Group, and add the user created earlier (or pre-existing one, as needed)

Then click Devices and select the device you just created from Available Devices list. user created in last step.

Add device.

A "Reload SAN configuration" button should be visible top right of the UI. Press it.
