OK ... so I've made a lot of progress since my last post about VLAN id .... discovered I should be using ISCSI_AUTO and ibft .... However ... I'm still getting grief ....
from the init script local-top/iscsi, "iscsistart -b" is *failing* with the message: *Could not get boot entry.* I have hacked at the iscsi script and pared it down to the bare essentials: echo "loading ibft module" modprobe iscsi_ibft echo "load ibft module" echo "sleep 5" sleep 5 echo "wake up" echo "running iscsistart" /sbin/iscsistart -b echo "ended iscsistart" echo "running udevadm settle" udevadm settle echo "ended udevadm settle" echo "ended iscsi script" .... no joy .... but here is the kicker .... when the initscript fails to find root and drops me to the initramfs shell .... I run "iscsistart -b" at the command line it all works fine! .... configures the hba and connects to the lun .... on both interfaces .. exit out of the shell ... root gets mounted and all is well. The box is using emulex lan/iscsi adapters: 03:00.2 Mass storage controller: Emulex Corporation OneConnect 10Gb iSCSI Initiator (be3) (rev 01) 03:00.3 Mass storage controller: Emulex Corporation OneConnect 10Gb iSCSI Initiator (be3) (rev 01) I'm stumped ... is it a timing thing??? Any and all help appreciated !!! Thanks! --> Rob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
