Hi, If you just want to create a tape drive with a tape loaded, these commands should work : # create a blank tape tgtimg --op new --device-type tape --barcode 12345 --size 100 --type data --file /data/tape001.img # create a target tgtadm --lld iscsi --op new --mode target --tid 1 -T iqn.ronnie.test # create a SSC LUN for with the blank tape above loaded into the device tgtadm --lld iscsi --mode logicalunit --op new --tid 1 --lun 1 -b /data/tape001.img --device-type=tape # set up access control so anyone/everyone can use the LUN tgtadm --lld iscsi --op bind --mode target --tid 1 -I ALL This will create a virtual tape drive with a virtual tape loaded into it. If you want to create a full VTL with lots of different tapes and mediachanger devices there are examples on how to create a media jukebox for emulated CDROM devices in the manpage for tgtadm. That example should easy to modify to apply to tapes instead of CDROM. regards ronnie sahlberg On Sat, Jul 14, 2012 at 8:55 AM, Rob Evers <revers@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Could someone point me to set of directions > on how to setup a virtual iscsi tape drive using > scsi-target-utils? > > Thank, Rob > -- > 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 -- 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
