Description The EVA iSCSI Connectivity Option provides iSCSI connectivity to EVA Fibre Channel storage systems. You may order: • AE324A with an EVA storage system or to upgrade an existing EVA storage system. This option includes one hardware unit and the components needed to install in any EVA cabinet.
• QLogic iSCSI HBA Operating systems • Windows Server 2003 R2, SP2 • Windows XP Professional SP1, SP2 • VmWare ESX Server 3.0.
symmetric-option = 0x1000000; LUN 0 is automatically presented by Command View whenever a Virtual Disk is presented to an iSCSI host iqn. Workaround After presenting any LUN to the Solaris server iqn using Command View, the user must remove LUN 0 from the Solaris iqn entry for each iSCSI presented target on the mpx100: 1. Use Telnet to connect to the mpx100 management port, or connect to the mpx100 serial port using the HP-supplied connector. NOTE: The mpx100 management port’s default IP address is 10.0.0.
Please select a LUN from the list above ('q' to quit): 0 Index Initiator — ——– 0 iqn.2005-03.com:sanlabmac-s01 1 iqn.1986-03.com.sun:rack81-s16 2 iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:rack77-s16.sanbox.com 3 iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:rack77-s14.sanbox.com 4 iqn.1996-04.de.SuSe:bl7-04.sanbox.com 5 iqn.1996-04.de.SuSe:bl7-03.sanbox.com 6 iqn.1996-04.de.SuSe:bl7-02.sanbox.com . . . Please select an Initiator to remove ('a' to remove all, 'q' to quit): 1 All attribute values for that have been changed will now be saved.
NOTE: HP recommends adding a Symbolic Name to the iSCSI port iqn target name when presenting the target to an iSNS server. Mac iSCSI initiator may lose iSCSI connectivity to its LUNs if the Mac server has Sleep mode enabled The ATTO iSCSI initiator does not support MAC server Sleep mode. If the Mac goes to sleep because server Sleep mode is enabled, it may lose its iSCSI connections to its EVA LUNs. Workaround Disable MAC server Sleep mode if the ATTO iSCSI initiator is installed.
Workaround Use an alternative M-Series application to configure zones that include the mpx100 WWPNs. Select one of the following applications: • Prior to HAFM 8, use Embedded Web Server. • For HAFM 8 and later, use HAFM Basic. NOTE: After configuring the zones, you must update HAFM to include these new edits.
iSCSI initiator LUNs disappear after changing the initiator iqn name The mpx100 maintains a database of targets, initiators and LUNs and the corresponding links between them. Whenever Command View presents or removes a LUN from an iSCSI initiator, it updates the mpx100’s database. When a new iqn name logs into the mpx100, it is considered a new initiator and no LUNs are assigned to it. All LUN assignments to the old iqn are still maintained.
• Enter a portion of the data between page refreshes, and click Save to store the information. Enter the rest of the data and click Save. • Change the refresh interval for the entire GUI to a larger value in Agent Options > User Interface. The default value for the content pane is 60 seconds. iSCSI host entry in Command View EVA 5.0 and 6.
Workaround To ensure that the iSCSI initiator logs into the correct EVA target port: 1. Present only that EVA target port to the initiator. If multiple EVA target ports are presented, only log into the active EVA target port. Select from one of the following operating systems to set the iqn name: • For Windows—log in to the correct active target iqn name. • For Linux—set the TargetName in /etc/iscsi.conf to the active target iqn name. 2.
checkDuplicateIp: Detected Error MAC address The management port is still enabled, and it is still using its IP address. Workaround To clear the LED, turn the mpx100 beacon light off with either the mpx Manager or the following CLI command: beacon off Supersedes history Supersedes mpx100 firmware version 2.0.8.8.
