Hmm... somehow that got removed. I've rebuilt the system (I'm setting up new hardware fortunately) and am back to trying it out again. Just for background, I'm testing out on a Dell R610 with 4 onboard nics (no iscsi offload enabled) and 4 broadcom nics pci-e cards with iscsi offload enabled.I think I'm missing a basic step here.. but it feels close. 1. Installed CentOS 5.5 + updates, w/ iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.871-0.18.el5 on x86_64 machine. 2. eth0 is set to 10.1.3.20 IP address 3. eth4 is set to 10.1.4.30 (MAC Address:00:10:18:6A:E4:78) 4. Lefthand iscsi is setup on 10.1.4.10 5. I set up /var/lib/iscsi/ifaces/bnx2i.00:10:18:6a:e4:79 with the following content # BEGIN RECORD 2.0-871 iface.iscsi_ifacename = bnx2i.00:10:18:6a:e4:79 iface.hwaddress = 00:10:18:6a:e4:79 iface.ipaddress = 10.1.4.31 iface.transport_name = bnx2i # END RECORD 6. iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -I bnx2i.00:10:18:6a:e4:79 -p 10.1.4.10 returns 10.1.4.10:3260,1 iqn.2003-10.com.lefthandnetworks:rally-qd:104:testbnxvol Cool.. looks like I've found the LUN. I think this uses the eth4 device here, not the bnx2i
Yes. That is expected. We will use the offload engine for discovery in the next version.

Are there some bnx2i messages in /var/log/messages and could you send them too?
Also what is the Centos 5.5 kernel version? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
