How to manually configure the iSCSI software initiator using the command line

The command line tool for configuring the iSCSI is iscsiadm. Detailed instructions for iscsiadm
can be found in the iscsiadm man documents. The following instructions provide the minimum
steps to connect a Solaris host to an HP StoreOnce Backup System.
1. Find the iSCSI initiator node for the Solaris host:
# iscsiadm list initiator-node
Initiator node name: iqn.1986-03.com.sun:01:00144f1d9196.4715d8a3
Initiator node alias: -
Login Parameters (Default/Configured):
Header Digest: NONE/-
Data Digest: NONE/-
Authentication Type: NONE
RADIUS Server: NONE
RADIUS access: unknown
Configured Sessions: 1
In this example the initiator node name is
iqn.1986-03.com.sun:01:00144f1d9196.4715d8a3 This initiator node name is
required by the HP StoreOnce Backup System web management interface when manually
configuring library devices.
2. Configure the Solaris host to discover available iSCSI targets as follows, where x.x.x.x is
the IP address of the HP StoreOnce Backup System:
# iscsiadm add discovery-address x.x.x.x:3260
# iscsiadm list discovery-address
Discovery Address: x.x.x.x:3260
# iscsiadm modify discovery -t enable
# iscsiadm list discovery
Discovery:
Static: disabled
Send Targets: enabled
iSNS: disabled
3. List the configured iSCSI target devices as follows:
# iscsiadm list target
Target: iqn.1986-
03.com.hp:storage.d2d.cr203f18f4.01a9754150ae013a.library1.robotics
Alias: D2D.CR203F18F4.Library1.Robotics

ISID: 4000002a0000

Target: iqn.1986-03.com.hp:storage.d2d.cr203f18f4.7e0cdac23ab4eab1
