33 Setting Up the Dell™ DR Series System on Symantec™ Backup Exec™ | April 2015
3.2 Setting the iSCSI target CHAP credentials
By default the iSCSI username is “iscsi_user” and can be confirmed by reviewing the output of the iscsi –
show user command. For example:
# iscsi --show –user
user : iscsi_user
The default iSCSI password is “St0r@ge!iscsi”
1. You can modify the password by navigating to Clients in the DR Series system GUI and selecting the
iSCSI tab.
2. Select Edit CHAP Password and enter the new password as needed.
NOTE: iSCSI CHAP Passwords must be between 12 and 16 characters long
Alternatively you can use the “iscsi –setpassword” CLI command to change the iSCSI CHAP Password
setting. For example:
> iscsi --setpassword
WARNING: All existing iSCSI sessions will be terminated!
Do you want to continue? (yes/no) [n]?
Enter new CHAP password:############
Re-type CHAP password:############
