6) To enable use of the Lmhosts file to resolve remote NetBIOS names, select Enable LMHOSTS lookup. 7) To specify the location of the file that you want to import into the Lmhosts file, select Import LMHOSTS and then select the file in the Open dialog box 8) Enable or disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. If using Windows 2008 Core Version On a server running Windows 2008 Core version, use the netsh interface command to configure the iSCSI ports on the host server. Linux Host Setup If you are using a Linux host network, the following section provides a framework for preparing your network for iSCSI. To set up a Linux host network, you must configure the IP address and netmask of each iSCSI port connected to the .The specific steps depend on whether you are configuring TCP/IP using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or configuring TCP/IP using a static IP address. Network Configuration Guidelines NOTE: The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to the same IP subnet as the iSCSI to SAS bridge management and iSCSI ports. Configuring TCP/IP on Linux using DHCP (root users only) 1) Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network file as follows: NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=mymachine.mycompany.com 2) Edit the configuration file for the connection you want to configure, either /etc/sysconfig/networkscripts/ifcfg-ethX (for RHEL) or /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-idXX:XX:XX:XX:XX (for SUSE). BOOTPROTO=dhcp Also, verify that an IP address and netmask are not defined. 3) Restart network services using the following command: /etc/init.d/network restart Configuring TCP/IP on Linux using a Static IP address (root users only) 1) Edit the /etc/sysconfig/network file as follows: NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=mymachine.mycompany.com GATEWAY=255.255.255.0 2) Edit the configuration file for the connection you want to configure, either /etc/sysconfig/networkscripts/ifcfg-ethX (for RHEL) or /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-idXX:XX:XX:XX:XX (for SUSE). BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 IPADDR=192.168.1.100 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.1.0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet HWADDR=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 3) Restart network services using the following command: /etc/init.d/network restart Avoiding duplicate iSCSI devices discovered by RH5 To kill the unwanted sessions on the duplicate devices, do the following: Page 12
