set iscsi-parameters Description For iSCSI, changes system-wide iSCSI parameters. Syntax set iscsi-parameters [chap enabled|disabled|on|off] [jumbo-frame enabled|disabled|on|off] [speed auto|1gbps] [isns enabled|disabled|on|off] [isns-ip iSNS-IP] [isns-alt-ip iSNS-IP] [iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6] Parameters chap enabled|disabled|on|off Enables or disables use of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. Disabled by default. jumbo-frame enabled|disabled|on|off Enables or disables support for jumbo frames. A normal frame can contain 1500 bytes whereas a jumbo frame can contain a maximum of 9000 bytes for larger data transfers. Use of jumbo frames can succeed only if jumbo-frame support is enabled on all network components in the data path. Disabled by default. speed auto|1gbps Not supported. isns enabled|disabled|on|off Enables or disables registration with a specified Internet Storage Name Service server, which provides name-to-IP-address mapping. Disabled by default. isns-ip iSNS-IP Specifies the IP address of an iSNS server. The default address is all zeroes. isns-alt-ip iSNS-IP Optional. Specifies the IP address of an alternate iSNS server, which can be on a different subnet. The default address is all zeroes. iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6 Optional. Specifies whether to use IP version 4 (IPv4) or 6 (IPv6) for addressing controller iSCSI ports. • ipv4: Lets you specify addresses in dot-decimal format, where the four octets of the address use decimal values without leading zeroes and the octets are separated by a period; for example, 10.132.2.205. This option is the default. • ipv6: Lets you specify addresses using eight groups of four hexadecimal digits, where the groups are separated by a colon. All groups must be specified. For example, 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0A90:3442. Example For a storage system using IPv4 addressing whose host ports are connected to different subnets, enable CHAP, specify the IP address of the iSNS server on each subnet, and enable registration with either server: # set iscsi-parameters chap enabled isns enabled isns-ip 10.10.10.93 isns-alt-ip 10.11.10.90 Success: Command completed successfully. - iSCSI parameter(s) were changed successfully. (2012-01-21 12:21:15) Specify that iSCSI ports will use IPv6 addressing: # set iscsi-parameters iscsi-ip-version ipv6 Success: Command completed successfully. - iSCSI parameter(s) were changed successfully.

set iscsi-parameters

set iscsi-parameters
Description
For iSCSI, changes system-wide iSCSI parameters.
Syntax
set iscsi-parameters
[chap enabled|disabled|on|off]
[jumbo-frame enabled|disabled|on|off]
[speed auto|1gbps]
[isns enabled|disabled|on|off]
[isns-ip
iSNS-IP
]
[isns-alt-ip
iSNS-IP
]
[iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6]
Parameters
chap enabled|disabled|on|off
Enables or disables use of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. Disabled by default.
jumbo-frame enabled|disabled|on|off
Enables or disables support for jumbo frames. A normal frame can contain 1500 bytes whereas a
jumbo frame can contain a maximum of 9000 bytes for larger data transfers. Use of jumbo frames
can succeed only if jumbo-frame support is enabled on all network components in the data path.
Disabled by default.
speed auto|1gbps
Not supported.
isns enabled|disabled|on|off
Enables or disables registration with a specified Internet Storage Name Service server, which
provides name-to-IP-address mapping. Disabled by default.
isns-ip
iSNS-IP
Specifies the IP address of an iSNS server. The default address is all zeroes.
isns-alt-ip
iSNS-IP
Optional. Specifies the IP address of an alternate iSNS server, which can be on a different subnet.
The default address is all zeroes.
iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6
Optional. Specifies whether to use IP version 4 (IPv4) or 6 (IPv6) for addressing controller iSCSI
ports.
ipv4
: Lets you specify addresses in dot-decimal format, where the four octets of the address use
decimal values without leading zeroes and the octets are separated by a period; for example,
10.132.2.205
. This option is the default.
ipv6
: Lets you specify addresses using eight groups of four hexadecimal digits, where the
groups are separated by a colon. All groups must be specified. For example,
0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0A90:3442.
Example
For a storage system using IPv4 addressing whose host ports are connected to different subnets,
enable CHAP, specify the IP address of the iSNS server on each subnet, and enable registration with
either server:
# set iscsi-parameters chap enabled isns enabled isns-ip 10.10.10.93 isns-alt-ip
10.11.10.90
Success: Command completed successfully. - iSCSI parameter(s) were changed
successfully. (2012-01-21 12:21:15)
Specify that iSCSI ports will use IPv6 addressing:
# set iscsi-parameters iscsi-ip-version ipv6
Success: Command completed successfully. - iSCSI parameter(s) were changed
successfully. (2012-01-21 12:21:20)
