Configure iSCSI Target
2017/04/17
 
Configure Storage Server with iSCSI.
A storage on a network is called iSCSI Target, a Client which connects to iSCSI Target is called iSCSI Initiator. This example is based on the environment below. 
+----------------------+          |          +----------------------+
| [   iSCSI Target   ] |10.0.0.30 | 10.0.0.31| [ iSCSI Initiator  ] |
|     dlp.srv.world    +----------+----------+     www.srv.world    |
|                      |                     |                      |

[1] Install administration tools first.
root@dlp:~#
apt -y install tgt
[2] Configure iSCSI Target.
For example, create an disk-image under the [/var/lib/iscsi_disks] directory and set it as a SCSI device.
# create a disk-image

root@dlp:~#
mkdir /var/lib/iscsi_disks

root@dlp:~#
dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/lib/iscsi_disks/disk01.img count=0 bs=1 seek=10G
root@dlp:~#
vi /etc/tgt/conf.d/target01.conf
# add to the end

# naming rule : [ iqn.yaer-month.domain:any name ]

<target iqn.2017-04.world.srv:target01>
    # provided devicce as a iSCSI target
    backing-store /var/lib/iscsi_disks/disk01.img
    # iSCSI Initiator's IP address you allow to connect
    initiator-address 10.0.0.31
    # authentication info ( set anyone you like for "username", "password" )
    incominguser username password
</target>
root@dlp:~#
systemctl restart tgt
# show status

root@dlp:~#
tgtadm --mode target --op show
