Default: Dell Compellent disk arrays are not detected. [no] iscsi profile-compellent Command Mode INTERFACE Enabling and Disabling iSCSI Optimization This feature is available on platforms Note: iSCSI auto-configuration and auto-detection is disabled by default. If iSCSI is enabled, flow control will be automatically enabled on all interfaces. To disable the flow control on all interfaces, enter the command no flow control rx on tx off and save the configuration. To disable iSCSI optimization, which can turn on flow control again on reboot, enter the command no iscsi enable and save the configuration. When you enable iSCSI on the switch, the following actions occur: • Link-level flow control is globally enabled, if it is not already enabled, and PFC is disabled. • iSCSI session snooping is enabled. • iSCSI LLDP monitoring starts to automatically detect EqualLogic arrays. The following message is displayed when you enable iSCSI on a switch and describes the configuration changes that are automatically performed: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %IFMGR-5-IFM_ISCSI_ENABLE: iSCSI has been enabled causing flow control to be enabled on all interfaces. EQL detection and enabling iscsi profile-compellent on an interface may cause some automatic configurations to occur like jumbo frames on all ports and no storm control and spanning tree port-fast on the port of detection. You can reconfigure any of the auto-provisioned configuration settings that result when you enable iSCSI on a switch. When you disable the iSCSI feature, iSCSI resources are released and the detection of EqualLogic arrays using LLDP is disabled. Disabling iSCSI does not remove the MTU, flow control, portfast, or storm control configuration applied as a result of enabling iSCSI. 386 | iSCSI Optimization

iSCSI Optimization

Auto-detection of Dell Compellent

To auto-detect iSCSI optimization on a switch connected to a Dell Compellent array, follow these steps:

Enabling and Disabling iSCSI Optimization

This feature is available on platforms

If iSCSI is enabled, flow control will be automatically enabled on all interfaces. To disable the flow control

on all interfaces, enter the command

no flow control rx on tx off

and save the configuration. To disable

iSCSI optimization, which can turn on flow control again on reboot, enter the command

no iscsi enable

and save the configuration.

When you enable iSCSI on the switch, the following actions occur:

•

Link-level flow control is globally enabled, if it is not already enabled, and PFC is disabled.

•

iSCSI session snooping is enabled.

•

iSCSI LLDP monitoring starts to automatically detect EqualLogic arrays.

The following message is displayed when you enable iSCSI on a switch and describes the configuration

changes that are automatically performed:

%STKUNIT0-M:CP %IFMGR-5-IFM_ISCSI_ENABLE: iSCSI has been enabled causing flow control to be

enabled on all interfaces. EQL detection and enabling iscsi profile-compellent on an interface

may cause some automatic configurations to occur like jumbo frames on all ports and no storm

control and spanning tree port-fast on the port of detection.

You can reconfigure any of the auto-provisioned configuration settings that result when you enable iSCSI

on a switch.

When you disable the iSCSI feature, iSCSI resources are released and the detection of EqualLogic arrays

using LLDP is disabled. Disabling iSCSI does not remove the MTU, flow control, portfast, or storm

control configuration applied as a result of enabling iSCSI.

Step

Task

Command

Command Mode

Configure the auto-detection of Dell Compellent

arrays on a port.

Default: Dell Compellent disk arrays are not detected.

[no] iscsi profile-compellent

Note:

iSCSI auto-configuration and auto-detection is disabled by default.
