Hi ALL, I try to set up oracle cluster with four nodes (DELL R610) and EqualLogig PS6000. Servers has four Broadcom 5709C dual network cards, two intenal, two PCI cards. I`m trying to get the bnx2i driver to work using iSCSI offload for four channels. I can't get it to work, getting error iscsiadm: Could not login to [iface: bnx2i.00:22:19:68:3a:04, target: iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:0-8a0906-76c630e04-e0492d35ddc63f-a1test, portal: 10.10.77.10,3260): iscsiadm: initiator reported error (4 - encountered connection failure)
Showing nothing in /var/log/messages and no events on the EQ box. DELL suport team is not shure if bnx2i driver will work with RHEL 5.5, they ask me to reinstall RHEL 5.2, from my opinion is that not an option. I am using RHEL 5.5, oracle linux, kernel 2.6.18-194.11.1.0.1.el5 on x86_64 iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.871-0.16.el5 All firmware of the R610 is up to date All interfaces are shown as bnx2i [r...@ora-db-rac1-04 ~]# scsiadm -m iface -bash: scsiadm: command not found [r...@ora-db-rac1-04 ~]# iscsiadm -m iface default tcp,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>,<empty> iser iser,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:22:19:68:3a:04 bnx2i,00:22:19:68:3a: 04,10.10.77.69,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:22:19:68:3a:0a bnx2i,00:22:19:68:3a:0a, 10.10.77.68,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:00:00:00:00:00 bnx2i, 00:00:00:00:00:00,<empty>,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:22:19:68:3a:06 bnx2i,00:22:19:68:3a: 06,10.10.77.67,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:10:18:64:2e:5b bnx2i,00:10:18:64:2e:5b, 10.10.77.66,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:10:18:64:98:bb bnx2i,00:10:18:64:98:bb, 10.10.77.65,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:22:19:68:3a:08 bnx2i,00:22:19:68:3a: 08,10.10.77.64,<empty>,<empty> bnx2i.00:10:18:64:98:b9 bnx2i, 00:10:18:64:98:b9,10.10.77.63,<empty>,<empty> Only four of them are connected to the SAN. How to figure out which hw- adress belongs to which interface? Is bnx2i driver supported for RHEL5.5? Is there a more detailed description for setting up such an environment as the RedHat manuals? I am searching for the best way to figure out he reason for the connect failures? Thanks for any helping hand. -- 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].
