Issue with open ISCSI utility - Device files not getting created

Hi Admins,

I have an issue in our Linux SErver, probing the SCSI disks attached over TCP/IP.

I followed this method to configure the scsi devices. However, it is not creating the device files.



iscsiadm --mode discovery --type sendtargets --portal 172.25.43.105


iscsiadm --mode node --login automatic




After the target is discovered, run this command to connect:

iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2004-08.com.qlogic:isr-6140.0803c01137.0.50060e801043d440.50060e801043d440 --portal 172.25.43.105 --logout


Replacing --login with --logout will end the connection.

To make this connection persistent (so that it will reconnect after reboot), run this command:

iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.2004-08.com.qlogic:isr-6140.0803c01137.0.50060e801043d440.50060e801043d440 -p 172.25.43.105 --op update -n node.conn[0].startup -v automatic



iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2004-08.com.qlogic:isr-6140.0803c01137.0.50060e801043d440.50060e801043d440 --portal 172.25.43.105 --login

[root@uat dev]# iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2004-08.com.qlogic:isr-6140.0803c01137.0.50060e801043d440.50060e801043d440 --portal 172.25.43.105 --login
[root@uat dev]#


It is successfully showing the remote iqn. But the device files are not created.

Any help will be appreciated. I will assign Points.

Re: Issue with open ISCSI utility - Device files not getting created

What OS, linux kernel, and open-iscsi versions are you using?
