This doesn't really make much sense to me. What target are you using?
scst, tgt, lio or iet? What looks weird to me is that the dd command
example you gave writes over the xfs filesystem :
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vg+vg00/lv+i+lv0000 bs=1M conv=notrunc
This is definitely incorrect. Given that /dev/vg+vg00/lv+i+lv0000 is
your xfs formatted lv, you must mount it somewhere :
mount /dev/vg+vg00/lv+i+lv0000 /mnt/whatever
Then you dd the file on /mnt/whatever :
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/whatever/lunfile bs=1M
Lastly, you declare /mnt/whatever/lunfile as the lun in your target
(method varies depending upon the target used), something like (ietd
example):
Target iqn.2010-09:com.whatever.host.target1
Alias host.target1
Lun 0 Type=fileio,Path=mnt/whatever/lunfile,IOMode=wback
