Managing Network Adapters

Configuring iSCSI Boot Capability

Procedure

	Command or Action	Purpose
Step 1	Server# scope chassis	Enters the chassis command mode.
Step 2	Server /chassis # scope adapter index	Enters the command mode for the adapter card at
		the PCI slot number specified by index.
		Note	The server must be powered on before
			you can view or change adapter settings.
Step 3	Server /chassis/adapter # scope host-eth-if	Enters the host Ethernet interface command mode
	{eth0 eth1 name}	for the specified vNIC.
Step 4	Server /chassis/adapter/host-eth-if # create	Creates the iSCSI boot index for the vNIC. At this
	iscsi-boot index	moment, only 0 is allowed as the index.
Step 5	Server	Creates an iSCSI target for the vNIC. The value
	/chassis/adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot* #	can either be 0 or 1.
	create iscsi-target index
Step 6	Server	Enables the DHCP network settings for the iSCSI
	/chassis/adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot* # set	boot.
	dhcp-net-settings enabled

Step 7	Server
	/chassis/adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot* # set
	initiator-name string

Sets the initiator name. It cannot be more than 223 characters.

Step 8	Server
	/chassis/adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot* # set
	dhcp-iscsi-settings enabled
Step 9	Server
	/chassis/adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot* #
	commit

Enables the DHCP iSCSI settings.

Commits the transaction to the system configuration.

Note The changes will take effect upon the next server reboot.

This example shows how to configure the iSCSI boot capability for a vNIC:

Server # scope chassis

Server /chassis # scope adapter 1

Server /chassis/adapter # scope host-eth-if eth0

Server /chassis/adapter/host-eth-if # create iscsi-boot 0

Server /adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot *# set dhcp-net-settings enabled

Server /adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot *# set initiator-name iqn.2012-01.com.adser:abcde Server /adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot *# set dhcp-iscsi-settings enabled

Server /adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot *# commit

New host-eth-if settings will take effect upon the next server reset

Server /adapter/host-eth-if/iscsi-boot #
