Linux Host Setup
To set up a Linux host network, you must configure the IP address and netmask of each iSCSI port
connected to the storage array. The specific steps depend on whether you are configuring TCP/IP using
DHCP or configuring TCP/IP using a static IP address.
NOTE: The server IP addresses must be configured for network communication to the same IP
subnet as the storage array management and iSCSI ports.
Setting Up Linux Host Network Using DHCP
If you are using DHCP (root users only):
1.
Edit the
/etc/sysconfig/network
file using
NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=mymachine.mycompany.com
2.
Edit the configuration file for the connection you want to configure, either /etc/sysconfig/network-
scripts/ifcfg-ethX for (for Red Hat Enterprise Linux) or /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (for SUSE Enterprise Linux).
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
Also, verify that an IP address and netmask are not defined.
3.
Restart network services using
/etc/init.d/network restart
