I have a CentOS 5.6 server running scsi-target-utils 1.0.8 and I've been running it as an iSCSI server to some ESXi servers for a couple weeks. It's worked overall but has a couple issues that seem related to it locking up when I try to add it as a target. I've only gotten it to work on one of my three (identical) ESXi servers. It stops responding when I try to add it or the connection never seems to be made even though I see the server and targets show up in ESXi. Occasionally it stops responding other times - possibly when under higher than average load. One of the CPUs maxes out and never goes back down and it just stops responding. When I target it from Windows Server it doesn't seem to have a problem (but isn't under nearly the same level of usage). I'm just teaching myself about iSCSI so I'm not sure if I'm dealing with a mistake on my part or a bug. Not finding any obvious answer by Googling or experimenting. I divided my disk up into <2GB chunks. My current targets.conf looks like this: <target iqn.2011-07.dev:storage0> backing-store /dev/disk0 backing-store /dev/disk1 backing-store /dev/disk2 backing-store /dev/disk3 </target> Thanks, Michael McGlothlin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stgt" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
