Appendix—Manual Configuration of iSCSI

If you are using Windows Server 2008 Core Version:

1 Set the iSCSI initiator services to start automatically (if not already set):

sc \\<server_name> config msiscsi start= auto

2 Start the iSCSI service (if necessary): sc start msiscsi
3 Log on to the target:

iscsicli PersistentLoginTarget <Target_Name>

<Report_To_PNP> <Target_Portal_Address>

<TCP_Port_Number_Of_Target_Portal> * * *

<Login_Flags> * * * * * <Username> <Password>

<Authtype> * <Mapping_Count>

where

<Target_Name> is the target name as displayed in the target list. Use

the iscsicli ListTargets command to display the target list.

<Report_To_PNP> is T, which exposes the LUN to the operating

system as a storage device.

<Target_Portal_Address> is the IP address of the iSCSI port on the

controller being logged in to.

<TCP_Port_Number_Of_Target_Portal> is 3260.

<Login_Flags> is 0x2 to enable multipathing for the target on the

initiator. This value allows more than one session to be logged in to a

target at one time.

<Username> is the initiator name.

<Password> is the target CHAP secret.

<Authtype> is either 0 for no authentication, 1 for Target CHAP, or 2

for Mutual CHAP.

:

NOTE:

<Username>

, <Password> and <Authtype> are optional parameters.

They can be replaced with an asterisk (*) if CHAP is not used.

<Mapping_Count> is 0, indicating that no mappings are specified

and no further parameters are required.

* * * An asterisk (*) represents the default value of a parameter.
