Where is Volume IQN on MSA 2012i iscsi

[BSavage]

New to MSA, read and absorbed what I can of the documentation. My other SAN IBM DS300 has an iqn assigned for each volume. This is used as a target for my Qlogic HBA's.

I created a new volume, and there is an iqn for the monitor>advanced settings>host port status. I see iqn for the port, but what about for a volume? am I supposed to target the port? How does the HBA know what LUN then? am I supposed to suffix the volume name after the host iqn? I made that up.


Any help is extremely appreciated. I can't attach to my MSA. Thanks.

To address each volume you select different LUNs not different iSCSI addresses (IQN). Each controller has a seperate IQN, iqn.some-date.something.a for controller A, iqn.some-date.something.b for controller B.

Use this addresses and select the right LUN for the volume you want to connect to.

How to select a LUN from the initiator side? I'm having the same problem with an MSA2012i.

Initiators running on WIndows 7, FreeBSD 9.1, and VMware ESXi 5.1 only see something like this, not a volume or LUN:

 iqn.1986-03.com.hp:storage.msa2012i.0801d12345.a

Connecting to this iqn is possible, but it only shares the enclosure, not any volumes. Packet captures from all three OSs show the same thing: This is the only iqn advertised in response to the iSCSI SendTargets=All command.

Thanks in advance for help with connecting to this device.
