bl260c iscsi boot from sb600c

 

bl260c iscsi boot from sb600c

hi all, i'm trying to configure the bl260c to boot the so from iscsi storage(sb600c).

i've created the configuration file with the linux utility infact the boot prom initialize itself, but when he try to connect to storage he reply that connection is failed.

i have configured a iscsi target on the sb600c and configure the initiator with the disk portion to present, but it continue to fail the connection.

where i can find the documentation for configuring storage and blade to boot correctly??
