6 Restart the iSCSI daemon by executing the following command from the console:

/etc/init.d/iscsi restart

iscsi -ls

If you are using RHEL 5 or SLES 10 SP1

Configuration of the iSCSI initiator for RHEL version 5 and SLES 10 SP1 distributions is done by
modifying the /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf file, which is installed by default when you install MD Storage
Manager. You can edit the file directly, or replace the default file with a sample file included on the
MD3000i Resource CD.

To use the sample file included on the CD:

1 Save the default /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf file by naming it to another name of your choice.
2 Copy the appropriate sample file from /linux/etc on the CD to /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf.
3 Rename the sample file to iscsid.conf.
