Hi!
I'm new to libvirt and face problems connecting to an iSCSI target.
What I intend to do is to connect libvirt (I tried virt-manager and
virsh) to an iSCSI target and then boot from the LUNs which contain
the VMs.
I followed the documentation¹ but got stuck at section 12.1.5.4.3.
1)
virsh pool-define-as \
--name foo \
--type iscsi \
--source-host vmhost \
--source-dev iqn.2013-11.vmhost:vmpool \
--target /dev/disk/by-path
2)
virsh pool-start foo
error: Failed to start pool foo
error: internal error: cannot find session
virsh -c qemu:///system pool-start foo
error: Failed to start pool foo
error: internal error: cannot find session
Why can't libvirt find the session, and which session? Running
iscsiadm --mode discovery --type sendtargets --portal vmhost:3260,1
succeeds and lists the targets. How to connect libvirt to the iSCSI
target?
System info:
Debian sid, Linux 3.11-2-amd64
libvirtd (libvirt) 1.1.4
virsh version: 1.1.4
iSCSI target: FreeNAS-9.1.1
Best regards
Marco
