Perform mutual authentication—If mutual CHAP authentication is configured, select this option.

NOTE: IPSec is not supported.

8Click OK.

If you require a discovery session failover, repeat step 5 and step 6 (in this procedure) for all iSCSI ports on the storage array. Otherwise, single-host port configuration is sufficient.

NOTE: If the connection fails, ensure that all IP addresses are entered correctly. Mistyped IP addresses result in connection problems.

If you are using Windows Server 2008 Core version:

1Set the iSCSI initiator services to start automatically (if not already set): sc \\<server_name> config msiscsi start=auto

2Start the iSCSI service (if necessary): sc start msiscsi.

3If you are not using mutual CHAP authentication, go to step 5.

4Enter the mutual CHAP secret you entered for the storage array: iscsicli CHAPSecret <secret>

5Remove the target portal that you configured on the storage array during target discovery:

iscsicli RemoveTargetPortal <IP_address> <TCP_listening_port>

6Add the target portal with CHAP defined:

iscsicli QAddTargetPortal

<IP_address_of_iSCSI_port_on_storage_array> [CHAP_username]

[CHAP_password]

where, [CHAP_username] is the initiator name and [CHAP_password] is the target CHAP secret.

If you require a discovery session failover, repeat step 5 for all iSCSI ports on the storage array. Otherwise, single-host port configuration is sufficient.
