For an ESXi host to access FlashArray storage, an array administrator must create a host object. A FlashArray host object (usually called host) is a list of the ESXi host’s initiator iSCSI Qualified Names (IQNs) or Fibre Channel Worldwide Names (WWNs). Arrays represent each ESXi host as one host object. Similarly, arrays represent a VMware cluster as a host group, a collection of hosts with similar storage-related attributes.
