2. Install the source RPM package by entering:
rpm -ivh <open-iscsi-package-name>.src.rpm
3. CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel. Enter:
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm

rpm -bb SPECS/<open-iscsi-package-name>.spec
or
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/<open-iscsi-package-name>.spec
(for RPM version 4.x.x)
Note
The RPM path is different for each Linux distribution.
4. Install the newly built package by entering:
rpm -ivh RPMS/<arch>/<open-iscsi-package-
name>.<arch>.rpm
where <arch> is the machine architecture such as i386.
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/<open-iscsi-package-
name>.i386.rpm
5. Start the daemon by entering:
iscsid
Binding iSCSI Target to Broadcom NX2 iSCSI Transport Name
By default, the open-iscsi daemon connects to discovered targets using
software initiator (transport name = 'tcp'). If you want to offload an iSCSI
connection onto CNIC device should explicitly change the transport
binding of the iSCSI node. This can be done using iscsiadm cli utility as
follows:
iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2004-
06.com.broadcom:tg1 \
--portal 192.168.1.100 --op=update \
--name=node.transport_name --
value=${XPORT_NAME}
