Adjusting node.conn[0].timeo.noop_out_interval and node.conn[0].timeo.noop_out_timeout to 0 didn't seem to make a difference. But increasing the value of /sys/ block/sd#/device/timeout from 30 to a higher number, like 360, seems to have improved things... Is that something you would expect? Do

open-iscsi 2.0.871 w/ multipath ping timeout on connect

2010-05-24 Thread pli
Hi, i'm running open-iscsi 2.0.871 userspace tools and modules from kernel 2.6.33.3. I encounter a strange problem sometimes when I connect using multipath to an equallogic array. I have interfaces eth1 and eth3 in the ISCSI network and if I connect to a target on the equallogic array it

Hey so with Win7 you get around 10 MB/s and when you do reads to the iscsi disk /dev/sdb directly you got 9.5 MB/s, but when writing to the disk you get around 1 MB/s, right? YES These are the dd testing outcome. # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=1M count=1024 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records

We are having similar problems. (More connection failed and ping timeouts as opposed to Authentication/login issues) Is your equallogic array 1Gig or 10 Gig? I am using a Suse 11.0 kernel, with open-iscsi 2.0.870-26, and when we contacted equallogic (dell) they said the logs show the array isn't

Hi Mike, I don't have a version of brcm_iscsiuio which I have readily avaliable for 5.5.z which has the fix you are looking for without adding new features. I will need to create a version of brcm_iscsiuio with the iscsid/brcm_iscsiuio backported for 5.5.z. When does this need to be

Mike and all, okay, noted about the ping timeout messages. I set both of those values by running: iscsiadm --mode node --o update -n node.conn[0].timeo.noop_out_interval -v 10 iscsiadm --mode node --o update -n node.conn[0].timeo.noop_out_timeout -v 10 I verifed the settings took via iscsiadm

Yes, when I get to office tomorrow I can attach screen output of make fail, as well as support info with equallogic. I guess to a different point, I understand if we are just killing the disk that can cause problems, but how can I set it up so that IO is slow or queues, and doesn't cause
