Configuring the iSCSI target – Linux

Before you begin this procedure, ensure that the iSCSI initiator is installed (iscsi-initiator-utils). For

example:

yum install iscsi-initiator-utils ; /etc/init.d/iscsi start

To configure the iSCSI target for Linux, follow these steps.

1.

Add the CHAP Authentication details for the DR Series system on the Linux Initiator as follows:

a.

Edit /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf and un-comment the following line:

node.session.auth.authmethod = CHAP

b.

Modify the following lines:

# To set a CHAP username and password for initiator

# authentication by the target(s), uncomment the following lines:

node.session.auth.username = iscsi_user

node.session.auth.password = St0r@ge!iscsi

2.

Set the Discovery Target Node(s) by using this command:

iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p <IP or IQN of DR>
