Hello everyone. I'm trying to use a regular USB disk on solaris, and export it
via iSCSI. format shows it:
6. c4t0d0 <WDCWD32-00KS-00PFB0- cyl 38911 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63>
/pci at 0,0/pci1043,815a at 2,1/storage at a/disk at 0,0
but when I try to export it, I see that there is no raw disk file to export. Or
at least I think that's the problem. I have c4t0d0s[0-15] and c4t0d0p[04]. So
if I try to do
iscsitadm create target -t disk -b /dev/dsk/c4t0d0[whatever] -u 0 external
I get:
iscsitadm: Error Backing store is not a valid raw device
I guess I need access to the raw disk (c4t0d0), but it's not available in /dev/
Do I need to format, label it, or something? I don't think I can write anything
to this disk (it's a TrueCrypt-formatted drive, so writing to it may corrupt
the header and render it unusable).
Thanks in advance,
Hernan
