Brian,
Please set unique SAS address for each SAS port of target controller,
and make sure you do correct connection, you can get the SAS address of
attaching device from "attach sas address ".Then enable target mode and
add target LUN.

Do you mean "add target LUN and then enable target mode"? Otherwise an initiator can connect while there are no LUNs configured on the target and confused by it.

Regards
Andy Yan

Hi All,

I'm glad to announce that a target driver for Marvell 88SE64xx(3G)
and
88SE94xx(6G) SAS cards has been just added in the SCST SVN
repository.
A
lot of thanks to Marvell and Andy Yan!

This driver allows to use a SAS controller based on Marvell
88SE64xx
or
88SE94xx chips as a SAN storage server (target). More info you can
find
on the SCST page http://scst.sourceforge.net.

You can download the driver from SCST SVN by running a command:

$ svn co https://scst.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scst

Hi Vlad/Andy,

Is this target driver expected to work with 6320 cards as well?
Using
this driver, I was able to discover a SATA drive connected to the
6320
in initiator mode.

I connected the 6320 directly to a second 6320 on another machine,
set
up a virtual LUN with SCST (added to the default group, etc.) and
enabled target mode, but I'm not seeing anything on the initiator
side.
Double check you don't have in the kernel log messages like "tgt_dev
for
LUN X not found, command to unexisting LU?" (I assume you have SCST
tracing enabled, it is by default so in the SVN trunk/). If you do,
then
you didn't setup the virtual LUN correctly.

Vlad

Thanks Vlad. I think my SCST configuration is Ok. I did experiment
previously with the iSCSI target and the scst_local driver, and both
worked fine.

Andy,

Thanks for the README. I followed the steps in the file and see the same
result. The following shows the commands I'm using and the associated
output.
On the target side, I load the SCST/mvsas drivers and enable target
mode. This looks like it works, but my 'target_mode' file is slightly
different from what is shown in the README:

Next, I create the virtual LUN and add it to the default group as LUN 0:

root@ix12-1:/proc/scsi_tgt/vdisk# echo "open test

... and finally, I load the mvsas driver on the initiator side:

At this point I would have expected a new SCSI disk to appear for the
virtual LUN, any thoughts? Thanks.
