Hi!
I am in the process of setting up my first iscsi boot environment and
i am using open-scsi as the initiator for my nodes. I am followiing
this excellent tute: http://www.etherboot.org/wiki/sanboot/debian_etch_iscsi
As the tute states, the fwparam_ibft executable is not part of debian
install, and so I set forth to compile it manually per the
instructions. However it didn't quite work out as I had hoped. First I
had alot of errors like these:
/root/open-iscsi-2.0-871/utils/fwparam_ibft/fwparam_ibft.c:395:
undefined reference to `strlcpy'
I fixed that by copying the strlcpy and strlcat implementations from
postgreSQL from here: http://doxygen.postgresql.org/strlcat_8c-source.html
into a new file strl.c and incorporating that into the Makefile
However when I try to create the fwparam_ibft executalbe that the
original tute talks about after meding the strl* problem, it now
complains that there is no main function. And indeed after grep'ing
the whole dir there are no main functions to be seen for fwparam_ibft
This leads me to the following question:
1.How can i obtain the fwparam_ibft binary or the current equivalent/
replacement?
If you just do make user or make from the top level of the tarball then
it should all build ok. There is no fwparam_ibft program. Instead just
run iscsiadm in fw mode.
log into targets found in fw
iscsiadm -m fw -l
print out the targets found in fw and create /etc/iscsi/nodes records
for them
iscsiadm -m discovery -t fw -P 1
print out the targets found in fw and create /etc/iscsi/nodes records
for them and login
iscsiadm -m discovery -t fw -P 1 -l
2.What changes must be made to the build instructions and the boot
scripts mentioned in that tute?
Are you using ibft?
Thanks!
