iSCSI commands

stuff i documented while i was figuring out iscsi


on the client, start the iscsi daemon<br>
/etc/init.d/iscsid start<br>
discover the iscsi targets<br>
iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.125.230<br>
log into the target<br>
iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.2010-04.local.dfwlp:storage.zeus.iscsi_tcp -p 192.168.125.230 -l<br>
the device now shows up as a /dev/sd[x]. format it to your hearts content.<br>
make sure iscsid starts automatically<br>
chkconfig iscsid on<br>


later, logging out:<br>
iscsiadm -m node -p 192.168.125.230 --logout<br>
iscsiadm -m discoverydb -t sendtargets -p 192.168.125.230 -o delete<br>
