This guide explains how you can set up an iSCSI target and an iSCSI initiator (client), both running Ubuntu 10.04. The iSCSI protocol is a storage area network (SAN) protocol which allows iSCSI initiators to use storage devices on the (remote) iSCSI target using normal ethernet cabling. To the iSCSI initiator, the remote storage looks like a normal, locally-attached hard drive.
I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!
I‘m using two Ubuntu 10.04 servers here:
Because we will run all the steps from this tutorial with root privileges, we can either prepend all commands in this tutorial with the string sudo, or we become root right now by typing
sudo su
server2:
First we set up the target (server2):
aptitude install iscsitarget
Open /etc/default/iscsitarget...
vi /etc/default/iscsitarget
... and set ISCSITARGET_ENABLE to true:
ISCSITARGET_ENABLE=true
We can use unused logical volumes, image files, hard drives (e.g. /dev/sdb), hard drive partitions (e.g. /dev/sdb1) or RAID devices (e.g. /dev/md0) for the storage. In this example I will create a logical volume of 20GB named storage_lun1 in the volume group vg0:
lvcreate -L20G -n storage_lun1 vg0
(If you want to use an image file, you can create it as follows:
mkdir /storage
dd if=/dev/zero of=/storage/lun1.img bs=1024k count=20000
This creates the image file /storage/lun1.img with a size of 20GB.
)
Next we edit /etc/ietd.conf...
vi /etc/ietd.conf
... and comment out everything in that file. At the end we add the following stanza:
[...]
Target iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1
IncomingUser someuser secret
OutgoingUser
Lun 0 Path=/dev/vg0/storage_lun1,Type=fileio
Alias LUN1
#MaxConnections 6
The target name must be a globally unique name, the iSCSI standard defines the "iSCSI Qualified Name" as follows: iqn.yyyy-mm.<reversed domain name>[:identifier]; yyyy-mm is the date at which the domain is valid; the identifier is freely selectable. The IncomingUser line contains a username and a password so that only the initiators (clients) that provide this username and password can log in and use the storage device; if you don‘t need authentication, don‘t specify a username and password in the IncomingUser line. In the Lun line, we must specify the full path to the storage device (e.g. /dev/vg0/storage_lun1, /storage/lun1.img, /dev/sdb, etc.).
Now we tell the target that we want to allow connections to the device iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1 from the IP address 192.168.0.100 (server1.example.com) (comment out the ALL ALL line because that would allow all initiators to connect to all targets)...
vi /etc/initiators.allow
[...] iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1 192.168.0.100 #ALL ALL
... and start the target:
/etc/init.d/iscsitarget start
server1:
On server1, we install the initiator:
aptitude install open-iscsi
Next we open /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf...
vi /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf
... and set node.startup to automatic:
[...] node.startup = automatic [...]
Then we restart the initiator:
/etc/init.d/open-iscsi restart
Now we connect to the target (server2) and check what storage devices it has to offer:
iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p 192.168.0.101
root@server1:~# iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p 192.168.0.101
192.168.0.101:3260,1 iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1
root@server1:~#
iscsiadm -m node
root@server1:~# iscsiadm -m node
192.168.0.101:3260,1 iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1
root@server1:~#
The settings for the storage device iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1 on 192.168.0.101:3260,1 are stored in the file /etc/iscsi/nodes/iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1/192.168.0.101,3260,1/default. We need to set the username and password for the target in that file; instead of editing that file manually, we can use the iscsiadm command to do this for us:
iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1" --portal "192.168.0.101:3260" --op=update --name node.session.auth.authmethod --value=CHAP
iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1" --portal "192.168.0.101:3260" --op=update --name node.session.auth.username --value=someuser
iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1" --portal "192.168.0.101:3260" --op=update --name node.session.auth.password --value=secret
Now we can log in, either by running...
iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1" --portal "192.168.0.101:3260" --login
root@server1:~# iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1" --portal "192.168.0.101:3260" --login
Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1, portal: 192.168.0.101,3260]
Login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1, portal: 192.168.0.101,3260]: successful
root@server1:~#
... or by restarting the initiator:
/etc/init.d/open-iscsi restart
(If you want to log out, you can run
iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.lun1" --portal "192.168.0.101:3260" --logout
)
In the output of
fdisk -l
you should now find a new hard drive (/dev/sdb in this example); that‘s our iSCSI storage device:
root@server1:~# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sdb doesn‘t contain a valid partition table
root@server1:~#
To use that device, we must format it:
fdisk /dev/sdb
server1:~# fdisk /dev/sdb
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0x882944df.
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
After that, of course, the previous content won‘t be recoverable.
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 20480.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

You can unmount it like this:
umount /mnt
To have the device mounted automatically at boot time, e.g. in the directory /storage, we create that directory...
mkdir /storage
... and add the following line to /etc/fstab:
vi /etc/fstab

For test purposes, you can now reboot the system:
