Figure 7-307 Microsoft iSCSI software initiator 2.0 configuration step 27
7.9 Linux iSCSI software initiator in SLES9
This description about the iSCSI software initiator configuration is based on
SLES9 SP2. We describe both a single path and a multiple path setup.
7.9.1 Single path IO setup
The linux-iscsi RPM package must be installed before using the Linux iSCSI
software initiator. The package is shipped with SLES9 and can be installed for
example during installation of SLES9 SP2, or later on using YaST2. It is also
possible to use the
rpm
command line utility to install the RPM package. In
Example 7-1 the installation of linux-iscsi from the SP2 CD 1 with the
rpm
command line utility is shown. During installation of linux-iscsi the file
/etc/initiatorname.iscsi containing the initiator name is created. After installation
the initiator name can be queried with the
iscsi-iname
command.
Example 7-1 RPM installation of linux-iscsi using SLES9 SP2 CD1
