Troubleshooting iSCSI Initiator connections to the EVA iSCSI targets
If the iSCSI Initiator cannot connect to the EVA iSCSI targets presented by the mpx100/100b:
• For a Windows Initiator:
• Verify that the iSCSI driver is installed.
• Ping the mpx100/100b iSCSI port from the iSCSI Initiator.
• Select General > Secret and check the security setting on the initiator.
• Verify that the iSCSI Initiator’s iqn name changed in the General tab.
• Verify that the iSCSI Port IP address is added to Target Portals on the Discovery tab.
• Verify that the iSCSI Target status is connected on the Targets tab.
• For a Linux Initiator:
• Verify that the iSCSI driver is installed.
• Ping the mpx100/100b iSCSI Port from the iSCSI Initiator.
• Check for security settings, if any, in authentication settings in the /etc/iscsi.conf file.
• Verify that the iSCSI IP port address is added to the Discovery Address setting in /etc/isc-
si.conf file.
• Verify that the iSCSI Target name is added to the TargetName setting in the /etc/iscsi.conf
file.
• Verify that the iSCSI Target status is connected with the command iscsi-ls –l.
• For a Macintosh Initiator:
• Verify that the iSCSI driver is installed.
• Ping the mpx100/100b iSCSI port from the iSCSI Initiator.
• Verify that the target's Visible field is set to Yes in the Manager Targets screen.
• Verify that the target's status in the Target Status field is connected.
• For an OpenVMS Initiator:
• Verify that TCP/IP has been started and is properly configured.
• Verify that the initiator has been loaded and that the device DEA0 exists.
• Ping the mpx100/100b iSCSI ports from the OpenVMS host.
• Make sure the iSCSI ports and iSNS server (if applicable) have been defined in the TCP/IP
host database.
• On the mpx100/100b:
• Verify that the mpx100/100b iSCSI port’s IP address and subnet mask are set properly.
• Verify that the mpx100/100b iSCSI port is in the same LAN as the iSCSI Initiator.
• Check the iSCSI port CHAP settings (if any).
iSCSI Initiator, EVA iSCSI target, and EVA LUN connections
If the iSCSI Initiator connects to the EVA iSCSI target but does not see any EVA LUNs, check the
following:
• Check in HP Command View EVA to verify that a LUN iSCSI is presented to the iSCSI Initiator.
• Using mpx Manager or the CLI, verify that the mpx100/100b has the LUN assigned to the initiator.
• Check the iSCSI Initiator’s iqn name syntax.
