RE: RE: iSCSI Setup as Alternative to Shared Storage..

Hai..I have successfully setup iSCSI target and Initiator.I am able to :

Create a partition and file system on earlier raw partition.

I mounted the partition as:

#mount /dev/sda1 /newshare(mount point mentioned on cluster tool > resources > filesystem.

Provided e2label /dev/sda1 DATA

But When I tried to restart the iscsi on the next cluster node it showed me:

 

 

Removing iscsi driver: ERROR: Module iscsi_sfnet is in use

 

Whats this error all about?

 

Now its showing on both the node?

To dicover this volume from both nodes, hopefully you are aware of these iscsi commands

 

  Just giving examples

     1) First discover if these volumes are visible

         

1) # iscsiadm --mode discovery --type sendtargets --portal 10.1.40.222      (where 10.1.40.222 is IP address of iscsi   )

10.1.40.2:3260,1 iqn.2007-06.com.unisys:prov

10.1.40.2:3260,1 iqn.2007-06.com.unisys:prov-goldilocks1

10.1.40.2:3260,1 iqn.2007-06.com.unisys:p3vmware

10.1.40.2:3260,1 iqn.2007-06.com.unisys:p2vmware

 

                You can see it is showing  prov, prov-goldilocks1,p3vmware,p2vmware volumes [whichever  is created]

 

 2)Login to iscsi

       iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2007-06.com.unisys:prov  --portal 10.1.40.222 .login    

 

 

 3)do cat /proc/partitions

        It should show you /sd **

 

 4)mount that /dev/sd*   to any of cluster [it should allow you to mount from both nodes

 

 

  Just read some iscsi manuals and do this [withought GUI you can do that ..Add new resource basically related to clustering resource which automatically

  Mount your shared device when cluster manager is started )

  

So better configure it using iscsi commands and see whether you can mount it from both nodes [then you can add a resource about it]

Ya,I have now created /newshare directory on the both scsi initiator machine(cluster nodes).

I made the following entry thru system-config-cluster:

 

Resource >> Add New Resource >> Filesystem

Name : Sharedstorage

Mount Point : /newshare

Device : /dev/sda6

Option :

Filesystem type : ext3

 

Saved the file  and sent to the other Cluster Nodes.

 

Now What Next?

How will I know if the Shared Storage is seen through both the Cluster Nodes?

 

Earlier I had a script called duoscript on both the Cluster Nodes.What I had tested:

I ran the script on both the cluster nodes.I stopped few processes on one of node,suddenly other took the responsibility.

Now where should I put the script on shared Storage(target)?

 

Pls Help

Re:When I click on Resource >>  File System on Cluster Tool...It asked for Mount point, Device, Option,Name,filesystem id, filesystem type..What Entry I need to make ?

 Create one  directory as mount point , Select any file system which you want to create in list ,you can choose default file system ID there ..

 GUI will do the rest ..

Anyway, I am successful in setting Up iSCSI iniatiator and Target.

What I did is Created a raw partition(unformatted ) on target machine and restarted both the machine.

I put :

Lun 0 path=/dev/sda6

 

And That Did job for me.

 

Now I can easily see:

 

 [root@BL01DL385 ~]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi

Attached devices:

Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00

  Vendor: IET      Model: VIRTUAL-DISK     Rev: 0

  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 04

 

The “Virtual DISk” Entry confirms that.

 

Now I am making entry in

#system-config-cluster and Want to know what exact entry I need to make here:

 

When I click on Resource >>  File System on Cluster Tool...It asked for Mount point, Device, Option,Name,filesystem id, filesystem type..What Entry I need to make ?

 

My machine address is 10.14.236.134.

Path where Unformatted Partition made is /dev/sda6

 

As for Now, I have only unformatted partition?Do I need to format it?

 

Pls Help

So I have the following Entry at my ietd.conf file:

 

# iscsi target configuration 
 
Target iqn.2008-10.com.logical.pe:storage.lun1
        IncomingUser 
        OutgoingUser
        Lun 0 Path=/home/vjs/sharess,Type=fileio
        Alias iDISK0
        #MaxConnections  6

 

Is above Entry Correct?

My machine Hostname is pe.logical.com.

Little confused about storage.lun1 whats that?

I have now not included any incoming or outgoing user?Its open for all.

 

What About Alias Entry?

 

Ok After this entry being made, I have confusion on client side too.

 

The Doc says You need to make Entry on /etc/iscsi.conf file as:

 

# simple iscsi.conf
 
DiscoveryAddress=172.30.0.28
            OutgoingUserName=gfs
            OutgoingPassword=secretsecret
       LoginTimeout=15
       DiscoveryAddress=172.30.0.28

 

What’s the above entry means?IP??

 

 

As for My Setup I am setting up RHEL 4.0 machine with IP 10.14.236.134 as Target Machine and The two Nodes 10.14.236.106 and 10.14.236 108 as Already been in Cluster Nodes.

 

Thanks for Helping me out. But You need to also Help me What Entry in Cluster.conf I need to make after these things being completed?

I want to setup iSCSI as I am running short of Shared Storage.

In one of the Doc http://mail.digicola.com/wiki/index.php?title=User:Martin:iSCSI it says that :

[doc]

Install the Target

1. Install RHEL4, I used kickstart with just "@ base" for packages. Configure the system with two drives sda and sdb or create two logical volumes(lvm). The first disk is for the OS and the second for the iSCSI storage

[/doc]

 

My Hard Disk Partition says:

Since I need to make entry on:

In /etc/ietd.conf
 
Should I need to make separate partition or mention ??? under Lun 0 path=??? Entry?
 
If you wish you can create a separate partition. Else create a file & give the full path of the file. [e.g path=/home/test/target_file]
