iSCSI synchronization on VLT
An iSCSI session is considered to be learnt on VLT LAG during the following scenarios:
• If the iSCSI session receives control packets, as login-request or login-response, on the VLT LAG.
• If the iSCSI session does not receive control packets, but receives data packets on the VLT LAG. This happens when iSCSI session
monitoring is enabled after the iSCSI session has started.
The information learnt about iSCSI sessions on VLT LAGs are synchronized with the VLT peers.
The synchronization of the iSCSI sessions happens based on various scenarios:
• If the iSCSI login request is received on an interface that belongs to a VLT LAG, the information is synchronized with the VLT peer and
the connection is associated with the interface.
• Any additional updates to connections, including aging updates, that are learnt on VLT LAG members are synchronized with the VLT
peer.
• If the iSCSI login request is received on a non-VLT interface, followed by a response from a VLT interface, then the connection is
associated with the VLT LAG interface and the information about the session is synchronized with the VLT peer.
• When VLT interconnect comes up, information about iSCSI sessions learnt on VLT LAG is exchanged between the VLT-peers.
iSCSI commands
iscsi aging
Sets the aging time for monitored iSCSI sessions.
Syntax
iscsi aging [time minutes]
Parameters time minutes — Enter the aging time in minutes allowed for monitoring iSCSI sessions (5 to 43,200).
Default 10 minutes
Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage Information Congure the aging time allowed for monitored iSCSI sessions on TCP ports before the session closes. The no
version of this command disables the aging time.
Example
OS10(config)# iscsi aging time 30
Supported Releases 10.3.0E or later
iscsi enable
Enables iSCSI auto-detection of attached storage arrays and switch auto-conguration.
Syntax
iscsi enable
Parameter None
