Dell PowerVault MD3200 - Manual (Page 70)

70 Appendix—Manual Configuration of iSCSI
• Data Digest and Header Digest—Optionally, you can specify that a
digest of data or header information be compiled during transmission
to assist in troubleshooting.
• CHAP logon information—If CHAP authentication is required,
select this option and enter the Target secret.
• Perform mutual authentication—If mutual CHAP authentication is
configured, select this option.
NOTE: IPSec is not supported.
7 Click OK.
To support storage array controller failover, the host server must be
connected to at least one iSCSI port on each controller. Repeat step 3
through step 8 for each iSCSI port on the storage array that you want to
establish as failover targets. The Target Portal address is different for each
port you connected to.
NOTE: To enable the higher throughput of multipathing I/O, the host server
must connect to both iSCSI ports on each controller, ideally from separate
host-side NICs. Repeat step 3 through step 7 for each iSCSI port on each
controller. If using a duplex MD36 x0i configuration, then LUNs should also be
balanced between the controllers.
The Status field on the Targets tab should now display as Connected.
8 Click OK to close the Microsoft iSCSI initiator.
NOTE: PowerVault MD36 x0i supports only round-robin load-balancing
policies.
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>
