2.2.2.2 Configure host network adapter and iSCSI
To configure the host iSCSI initiator, use the following steps to make the recommended settings and activate
the iSCSI transport.
1. Edit the /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf file and set the following values. These values dictate the failover
timeout and queue depth. The values shown serve as a starting point and might require adjustment
depending on the environment.
node.session.timeo.replacement_timeout = 5
node.session.cmds_max = 1024
node.session.queue_depth = 128
2. Perform iSCSI discovery against one of the ME4 Series iSCSI port IPs. This sets up the nodedb in
the /var/lib/iscsi directory. See section 2.2.2.1 to identify the ME4 Series iSCSI port IP addresses.
# iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p $ME4_A2_IP
3. Log in to the discovered iSCSI qualified name (IQN).
# iscsiadm -m node –L all
