PersistentLoginTarget does not initiate a login to the target until after the system is rebooted. To establish immediate login to the target, substitute LoginTarget for PersistentLoginTarget.

:NOTE: See the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator 2.x User’s Guide for more information about the commands used in the previous steps. For more information about Windows Server 2008 Server Core, see the Microsoft Developers Network (MSDN) at microsoft.com.

If you are using a Linux Server:

In MDSM, the Configure iSCSI Host Ports displays the status of each iSCSI port you attempt to connect and the configuration state of all IP addresses. If either displays Disconnected or Unconfigured, respectively, check the following and repeat the iSCSI configuration steps:

Are all cables securely attached to each port on the host server and storage array?

Is TCP/IP correctly configured on all target host ports?

Is CHAP set up correctly on both the host server and the storage array?

To review optimal network setup and configuration settings, see "Configuring iSCSI on Your Storage Array" on page 35.

Step 8: (Optional) Set Up In-Band Management

Out-of-band management (see "Step 1: Discover the Storage Array (Out-of- band Management Only)" on page 54) is the recommended method for managing the storage array. However, to optionally set up in-band management, follow the procedure given below.

The default iSCSI host port IPv4 addresses are shown below for reference:

Controller 0, Port 0: IP: 192.168.130.101 Controller 0, Port 1: IP: 192.168.131.101

Controller 0, Port 0: IP: 192.168.132.101 Controller 0, Port 1: IP: 192.168.133.101

Controller 1, Port 0: IP: 192.168.130.102 Controller 1, Port 1: IP: 192.168.131.102

Controller 1, Port 0: IP: 192.168.132.102 Controller 1, Port 1: IP: 192.168.133.102
