I am relatively new to linux, so parden my ignorance. I have installed ISCSI on my Centos box and having some issues with getting ISCSI to connect\mount the drive at boot.
I have issued the /etc/init.d/iscsi status after a reboot and see that the ISCSI is up and running --> iscsid (pid 3557 3556) is running. The following has already been done: iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets –p 10.10.1.4:3260 (ip changed for the post to protect the innocent) However the drive is not mounted, so I set the login attemps using the following command: vi /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf and set the node.session.initial_login_retry_max = 60 Upon issuing the reboot command on the server the serve comes up and I do not see the ISCSI volumes. I did some more research and found this article: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/rhel-centos-fedora-linux-iscsi-howto.html Step 4. Say to enable ISCSI on startup by issuing the followoing command chkconfig iscsi on This has been done... & restarted and same issue Then I looked at the fstab so I edited fstab file (vi /etc/fstab) and added the following line: (came from URL above in step 4) /dev/sdd1 /mnt/iscsi ext3 _netdev 0 0 However I think this may be wrong as when I issue the fdisk -l command I see a different device Disk /dev/sda: 541.6 GB, 541693575168 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 65857 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk /dev/sda doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/sdf: 108.9 GB, 108998688768 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 13251 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes The other issue is the drives show up 4x each = 8 drives, and should only be two. Any assistance would be greatly appricieated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
