Re: loopback interface IP problem
Hi Mike thanks for your reply. My answers follow bellow right next to your questions. Tkx/Regards, PECastro So you do the ifconfig to lo after iscsi is setup and logged in right? Is the ip address different from what you originally logged into? I mean originally you did iscsiadm -m node -T some_tagret -p original_ip -l Initially I did iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 10.238.17.201 And I started the iscsi daemon, from there after it all just worked. then when you do the ifconfig it is a new_ip, but the iscsi tools think you want to still connect to original_ip so you get the connect failed errors and eventually the replacement/recovery timeout errors. But I do an ifconfig on the loopback interface adding a new IP on a virtual lo:0 I'm not messing with the original IP 10.238.17.201 which is still associated with eth0 What you would have to do is create a session to original_ip, then create a new session to new_ip, and if you do not want to see IO errors then you would use dm-multipath over both sessions and that would handle switching from the old path to the new path for you. Coul you explain me how I would be able to achieve that?! How do I create a session to the new IP? Perform a another discovery ? How can I use multipath between the two sessions?!

I'd suggest running netstat -rn, and I assume the kernel will route your net via lo now. I don't think I understand what you mean...

loopback interface IP problem
Hi there. I'm mounting a standard iscsi target. I've been doing a lot of interesting nice things, I can see the disk, I can play with it and everything is very wonderfull ! :) Long story short, the disk has been running fine as if it was really attached.
