They can be replaced with an asterisk (*) if CHAP is not used. is 0, indicating that no mappings are specified and no further parameters are required. * * * An asterisk (*) represents the default value of a parameter. For example, your logon command might look like this: iscsicli PersistentLoginTargetiqn.198405.com.dell:powervault.6001372000ffe333000000004672edf2 3260 T 192.168.130.101 * * * 0x2 0 To view active sessions to the target, use the following command: iscsicli SessionList PersistentLoginTarget does not initiate a login to the target until after the system is rebooted. To establish immediate login to the target, substitute LoginTarget for PersistentLoginTarget. NOTE: Refer to the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator 2.x User's Guide for more information about the commands used in the previous steps. For more information about Windows Server 2008 Server Core, refer to the Microsoft Developers Network (MSDN). Both resources are available at www.microsoft.com. If you are using a Linux Server If you configured CHAP authentication in the previous steps, you must restart iSCSI from the Linux command line as shown below. If you did not configure CHAP authentication, you do not need to restart iSCSI. /etc/init.d/iscsi restart Verify that the host server is able to connect to the iSCSI to SAS bridge by running the iscsi -ls command as you did in target discovery. If the connection is successful, an iSCSI session will be established to each iSCSI port on the iSCSI to SAS bridge. Sample output from the command should look similar to this: SFNet iSCSI Driver Version ...4:0.1.11-3(02-May-2006 TARGET NAME : iqn.1984-05.com.dell:powervault.6001372000f5f0e600000000463b9292 TARGET ALIAS : HOST ID : 2 BUS ID : 0 TARGET ID : 0 TARGET ADDRESS : 192.168.0.110:3260,1 SESSION STATUS : ESTABLISHED AT Wed May 9 18:20:27 CDT 2007 SESSION ID : ISID 00023d000001 TSIH 5 TARGET NAME : iqn.1984-05.com.dell:powervault.6001372000f5f0e600000000463b9292 TARGET ALIAS : HOST ID : 3 BUS ID : 0 TARGET ID : 0 TARGET ADDRESS : 192.168.0.111:3260,1 Setting Up Your iSCSI ISCSI to SAS bridge 57 SESSION STATUS : ESTABLISHED AT Wed May 9 18:20:28 CDT 2007 SESSION ID : ISID 00023d000002 TSIH 4 Guidelines for Configuring Your Network for iSCSI This section gives general guidelines for setting up your network environment and IP addresses for use with the iSCSI ports on your host server and iSCSI to SAS Bridge. Your specific network environment may require different or additional steps than shown here, so make sure you consult with your system administrator before performing this setup. Page 10
