Enable and Disable iSCSI Optimization
The following describes enabling and disabling iSCSI optimizaiton.
NOTE: iSCSI monitoring is disabled by default. iSCSI auto-configuration and auto-detection is enabled by default.
If you enable iSCSI, flow control is automatically enabled on all interfaces. To disable flow control on all interfaces, use the
no flow
control rx on tx off
command and save the configuration. To disable iSCSI optimization, which can turn on flow control
again on reboot, use the
no iscsi enable
command and save the configuration.
When you enable iSCSI on the switch, the following actions occur:
•
Link-level flow control is globally enabled, if it is not already enabled, and PFC is disabled.
•
iSCSI session snooping is enabled.
•
iSCSI LLDP monitoring starts to automatically detect EqualLogic arrays.
The following message displays when you enable iSCSI on a switch and describes the configuration changes that are automatically
performed:
%STKUNIT0-M:CP %IFMGR-5-IFM_ISCSI_ENABLE: iSCSI has been enabled causing flow control to be
enabled on all interfaces. EQL detection and enabling iscsi profile-compellent on an
interface
may cause some automatic configurations to occur like jumbo frames on all ports and no storm
control and spanning tree port-fast on the port of detection.
You can reconfigure any of the auto-provisioned configuration settings that result when you enable iSCSI on a switch.
When you disable the iSCSI feature, iSCSI resources are released and the detection of EqualLogic arrays using LLDP is disabled.
Disabling iSCSI does not remove the MTU, flow control, portfast, or storm control configuration applied as a result of enabling iSCSI.
NOTE: By default, CAM allocation for iSCSI is set to 0. This disables session monitoring.
Default iSCSI Optimization Values
The following table lists the default values for the iSCSI optimization feature.
Table 44. iSCSI Optimization Defaults
Parameter
Default Value
iSCSI Optimization global setting
Disabled on the S4810, S4820T, S3048–ON, and S4048–ON.
iSCSI CoS mode (802.1p priority queue mapping)
dot1p priority 4 without the
remark
setting when you enable
iSCSI. If you do not enable iSCSI, this feature is disabled.
iSCSI CoS Packet classification
When you enable iSCSI, iSCSI packets are queued based on
dot1p, instead of DSCP values.
VLAN priority tag
iSCSI flows are assigned by default to dot1p priority 4 without
the
remark
setting.
DSCP
None: user-configurable.
Remark
Not configured.
iSCSI session aging time
10 minutes
iSCSI optimization target ports
iSCSI well-known ports 3260 and 860 are configured as default
(with no IP address or name) but can be removed as any other
configured target.
iSCSI session monitoring
Disabled. The CAM allocation for iSCSI is set to zero (0).
