Displaying iSCSI Virtual Targets

Use the show iscsi virtual-target to display information about the Fibre Channel targets exported as
iSCSI virtual targets to the iSCSI initiators. The output includes static as well as dynamic targets. See
Example
Example 43-15 Displays Exported Targets
switch# show iscsi virtual-target
target: VT1
* Port WWN 21:00:00:20:37:62:c0:0c
target: VT2
target: iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:05.switch.04-01.2100002037a6be32

Displaying iSCSI User Information

The show user-account iscsi command displays all configured iSCSI user names. See
Example 43-16 Displays iSCSI User Names
switch# show user-account iscsi
username:iscsiuser
secret: dsfffsffsffasffsdffg
username:user2
secret:cshadhdhsadadjajdjas

Configuring iSLB

The iSCSI server load balancing (iSLB) feature provides a means to easily configure large scale iSCSI
deployments containing hundreds or even thousands of initiators. When not using iSLB, configuring
iSCSI requires the following:
•
OL-18084-01, Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 4.x
Port WWN is 22:09:00:05:30:00:10:e1
Port WWN is 22:0a:00:05:30:00:10:e1
Port WWN is 22:0b:00:05:30:00:10:e1
User Name for Mutual CHAP: testuser

Configured node
all initiator permit is enabled
Port WWN 21:00:00:04:cf:4c:52:c1
Configured node
all initiator permit is disabled
Port WWN 21:00:00:20:37:a6:be:32 , VSAN 1
Auto-created node
You need to perform multiple configuration steps on the MDS switch, including the following:
Initiator configuration using static pWWN and VSAN.
–
Zoning configuration for initiators and targets.
–
Optional create virtual target and give access to the initiator.
