Hi everyone, I'll admit that I'm a compltely newbie to iSCSI. I have a CentOS Linux server that I want to use as an iSCSI target for my ESXi server to back up its virtual machines.
I have managed to compile and install the iSCSI target software (i think) and I am able to connect to the iSCSI target from my ESXi server but I can't seem to get my LUN's or drives to show up as available to ESXi. My ietd.conf looks like this: Target iqn.2010-08.net.aaruphansen.daisy:Backup IncomingUser *username* *password* OutgoingUser *username2* *password* Lun 0 Path=/Backup/iscsidisks/LUN0,Type=fileio Alias Backup InitialR2T Yes ImmediateData Yes MaxOutstandingR2T 8 I have created a large file that I think I need to use as the iSCSI drive: [root@daisy etc]# ls -l /Backup/iscsidisks/LUN0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1099511627776 Aug 26 15:51 /Backup/iscsidisks/ LUN0 [root@daisy etc]# [root@daisy etc]# ps -ef|grep iscsid root 2473 1 0 Sep09 ? 00:00:00 iscsid root 2474 1 0 Sep09 ? 00:00:00 iscsid root 31026 30924 0 13:56 pts/1 00:00:00 grep iscsid [root@daisy etc]# [root@daisy etc]# uname -a Linux daisy.aaruphansen.net 2.6.18-238.19.1.el5.centos.plus #1 SMP Mon Jul 18 10:05:09 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@daisy etc]# I don't know where to look for logging from the iSCSI deamon so I am "flying blind" Any insight or assistance would be greatly appreciated -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
