iscsiadm(8) System Administration Commands iscsiadm(8)
NAME
iscsiadm - enable management of iSCSI initiators
SYNOPSIS
iscsiadm subcommand direct-object [options] [operand]
DESCRIPTION
The iscsiadm command enables management of the iSCSI (Internet SCSI)
initiator on a host. iscsiadm is implemented as a set of subcommands,
many with their own options, which are described in the section for
that subcommand. Options not associated with a particular subcommand
are described under OPTIONS.
iscsiadm works only when the following service is online:
svc:/network/iscsi/initiator:default
The iscsiadm command supports the following subcommands, which are de‐
scribed in detail in subsections that follow:
add Adds element(s) to an object.
list Lists element(s) of an object.
modify Modifies attributes of an object.
remove Removes an element from an object.
The iscsiadm subcommands operate on a direct-object. These are de‐
scribed in the section for each subcommand.
The iscsiadm command supports the Internet Storage Name Service (iSNS)
for the discovery of iSCSI targets. The command supports the Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) for authentication.
add Subcommand
The syntax for the add subcommand is:
iscsiadm add direct_object [operands...]
The add subcommand adds the following direct_objects:
discovery-address discovery-address [...]
Adds a target to a list of discovery addresses. A discovery address
(as in the syntax shown below) is an IP address:port combination
used in a SendTargets discovery session. Using this discovery ap‐
proach, a target device can inform an initiator of the target ad‐
dress and target name of each target exposed by that device. Con‐
nection to a target is not attempted unless the SendTargets method
of discovery has been enabled on the host. You enable this method
with the modify subcommand.
The discovery-address parameter is formatted as:
<IP-address>[:port]
If port is not specified, the default of 3260 will be used.
isns-server isns-server [...]
Add an iSNS server to the list of iSNS server addresses. An iSNS
server address (specified in the syntax shown below) is an IP ad‐
dress-port combination used in an iSNS discovery session. By using
iSNS discovery, an iSNS server can provide an initiator with infor‐
mation about a portal and the name of each target that belongs to
the same discovery domain as that of the initiator. Connection to
the iSNS server is not attempted unless the iSNS method of discov‐
ery has been enabled on the host. You enable this method with the
modify subcommand, described below.
The isns-server parameter is formatted as:
IP_address[:port]
If a port is not specified, the default of 3205 is used.
static-config static_target [...]
Adds a target to the list of statically configured targets. A con‐
nection to the target will not be attempted unless the static con‐
figuration method of discovery has been enabled.
The static_target parameter is formatted as:
<target-name>,<target address>[:port-number][,tpgt]
<target-name> can be up to 223 characters.
list Subcommand
The syntax for the list subcommand is:
iscsiadm list direct-object [options]
The list subcommand displays data for the following direct-objects:
discovery
Lists the discovery methods and their current activation state, en‐
abled or disabled. Discovery methods are:
o iSNS (Internet Storage Name Service)
o Static
o SendTargets
initiator-node
Lists information for the initiator node on the host. The iSCSI
initiator node represents a logical HBA and is a logical host con‐
nection point for iSCSI targets. The parameter values listed in the
response are default parameter settings for the initiator. Each
connected target for an initiator can have parameter values that
differ from the parameter values on the initiator node.
static-config [static_target[, ...]]
Lists the target name and address for specified targets or, if no
static targets are specified, all statically discovered targets.
target [-S] [-v] [target[, ...]]
Lists a target's current parameters, connection state, and which
method was used for the target's discovery. Reports information for
specified targets or, if no targets are specified, all targets that
have been discovered or have had parameters modified by the modify
target subcommand.
When used with the -S option for a specified target, this subcom‐
mand returns:
o target name
o logical unit number
o vendor ID
o product ID
o OS device name (for example, /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s0)
The -v options gives more details, such as the current login para‐
meters, the detailed connection information, and the discovery
method used to discover the target.
A return of NA as the discovery method parameter indicates that the
target was created with a iscsiadm modify target-param command and
does not exist as a discovered object. To remove such targets, use
iscsiadm remove target-param.
The Max Receive Data Segment Length is returned from the target
side during login process. It can be set only at the target side
and is not subject to negotiation. This displayed value is observed
by the initiator side when transferring PDU's to the target side.
target-param [-v] target [...]
Lists a target's default and user-defined parameters. The output
has the Default/Configured format. Default stands for the default
value of this parameter, and Configured stands for the configured
value of this parameter.
For example, when "Max Receive Data Segment Length" displays
8192/65536, this means the target will observe the maximum config‐
ured limit 65536 to transfer PDU's to the initiator side.
discovery-address [-v] [discovery-address[, ...]]
Lists the discovery-address objects that have been added using the
iscsiadm add discovery-address subcommand.
When used with the -v option, lists all known targets at a speci‐
fied discovery-address. The -v option returns one or more target
names along with zero or more target addresses and associated tar‐
get portal group tags (TPGT), if applicable.
isns-server [-v] [isns-server[, ...]]
Lists the isns-server objects that have been added using the iscsi‐
adm add isns-server subcommand.
When used with the -v option, this subcommand lists all known tar‐
gets at a specified isns-server address. The -v option returns one
of more target names along with zero or more target addresses and
associated target portal group tags, if applicable.
modify Subcommand
The syntax for the modify subcommand is:
iscsiadm modify direct_object [options]
The modify subcommand supports the following direct_objects:
discovery [options]
Enabling a discovery method initiates a discovery using that
method. Disabling a discovery method that is currently enabled does
not affect connections to any targets that have already been dis‐
covered by that method.
Options for modify discovery are as follows:
-i, -iSNS enable | disable
Enable or disable iSNS discovery.
-s, --static enable | disable
Enable or disable static discovery.
-t, --sendtargets enable | disable
Enable or disable SendTargets discovery.
initiator-node [options]
Modifies an initiator's properties. If a target is currently con‐
nected, this operation can succeed. However, the modified set of
parameters will not be in effect for that target until an existing
connection session no longer exists and a new connection has been
established. The options -C and --CHAP-secret require a CHAP secret
entry in response to a prompt.
For iSCSI booting when the Solaris I/O multipathing feature (for‐
merly known as Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager [STMS] or MPxIO) is
disabled, you can modify only the following initiator-node options:
o -r, --radius-server
o -R, --radius-access
o -P, --radius-shared-secret
For iSCSI booting when the Solaris I/O multipathing feature is en‐
abled, you can modify only the following initiator-node options:
o -h, --headerdigest
o -d, --datadigest
o -c, --configured-sessions
Options for modify initiator-node are as follows:
-A, --node-alias <initiator node alias>
Modifies the initiator node alias. Maximum length of 223 char‐
acters.
-a, --authentication chap | none
Sets the authentication mode.
-C, --CHAP-secret
Sets the CHAP secret value. There is no default value. Maximum
length is 16 characters; minimum required length is 12 charac‐
ters.
-c, --configured-sessions <num_sessions> | <IP address>[,<IP ad‐
dress>...]
Sets the number of configured iSCSI sessions that will be cre‐
ated for each iSCSI target. This setting will be applied to all
iSCSI Targets. If IP addresses are used then you must supply
one or more local IP addresses in a comma-separated list. Each
IP address represents an iSCSI session. TCP connections associ‐
ated with the session will bind to the particular local IP ad‐
dress. Binding multiple local addresses is a preferred configu‐
ration when used with IPMP.
-d, --datadigest none | CRC32
Sets whether CRC32 is enabled to check SCSI data transfers.
-H, --CHAP-name CHAP name
Specifies a CHAP username. If you do not use this option, upon
initialization, the CHAP name is set to the initiator node
name. When the authentication method is set to CHAP (see
-a/--authentication option, above), the CHAP username is dis‐
played with the command iscsiadm list initiator-node.
-h, --headerdigest none | CRC32
Sets whether CRC32 is enabled to check SCSI packet headers.
-m, --max-connections number_connections
Modifies the maximum connection number for iSCSI sessions. The
default value is 1. The maximum number of connections for each
session is 65535.
-N, --node-name <initiator node name>
Modifies the initiator node name. Maximum of 223 characters.
Note -
During Solaris installation, the initiator node name is set
to a globally unique value. Changing this value can adversely
affect operation within the iSCSI network.
-P, --radius-shared-secret (exclusive)
Sets the RADIUS shared secret.
-R, --radius-access enable | disable
Sets whether a RADIUS server will be used.
-r, --radius-server <IP address>[:<port>]
Sets the IP address and port of the radius server to be used.
-T, --tunable-param <<tunable-prop>=<value>, ...>
Specify one or more tunable parameters for all targets that
initiator node connected.
Note -
These values should only be modified by an administrator with
a good working knowledge of the parameter's impact within the
iSCSI network.
Supported tunable-prop options are:
recv-login-rsp-timeout
Session Login Response Time
The recv-login-rsp-timeout option specifies how long iSCSI
initiator will wait for the response of iSCSI session login
request from the iSCSI target. Valid value is from 0 to
60*60, default to 60 seconds.
conn-login-max
Maximized Connection Retry Time
The conn-login-max option lets the iSCSI initiator reestab‐
lish the connection to the target in case of IO timeout or
connection failure during the given time window. Valid
value is from 0 to 60*60. The default value is 180 seconds.
polling-login-delay
Login Retry Time Interval
The polling-login-delay option specifies the time interval
between each login retry when iSCSI initiator to target IO
timeout or connection failure. Valid value is from 0 to
60*60. The default value is 60 seconds.
target-param [options] target
Modifies a target's parameters. If a target is currently connected,
the modify operation will succeed, although the modified settings
might not take effect for a few seconds. To confirm that these set‐
tings are active, use iscsiadm list target -v. If a specified tar‐
get is not associated with any discovery method, a target object is
created with the specified parameters. After using this command to
modify a target's parameters, the new parameters will persist until
they are modified or removed with a iscsiadm remove target-param
command on that target. The options -C and --CHAP-secret require a
CHAP secret entry in response to a prompt.
Options for modify target-param are as follows:
-B, --bi-directional-authentication enable | disable
Sets the bidirectional option. If set to enable, the initiator
performs bidirectional authentication for the specified target.
-C, --CHAP-secret
Sets the target's CHAP secret value. There is no default value.
Maximum acceptable length is 16 characters.
-c, --configured-sessions <num_sessions> | <IP address>[,<IP ad‐
dress>...]
Sets the number of configured iSCSI sessions that will be cre‐
ated for each iSCSI target. If IP addresses are used then you
must supply one or more local IP addresses in a comma-separated
list. Each IP address represents an iSCSI session. TCP connec‐
tions associated with the session will bind to the particular
local IP address. Binding multiple local addresses is a pre‐
ferred configuration when used with IPMP.
-d, --datadigest none | CRC32
Sets whether CRC32 is enabled or disabled for the data.
-H, --CHAP-name CHAP name
Sets a CHAP username. If you do not use this option, upon ini‐
tialization, the CHAP name is set to the target name. When the
authentication method is set to CHAP (see -a/--authentication
option, under the initiator-node direct object, above), the
CHAP username is displayed with the command iscsiadm list ini‐
tiator-node.
-h, --headerdigest none | CRC32
Sets whether CRC32 is enabled or disabled for the header.
-p, --login-param
Specify one or more login parameter settings.
Note -
These values should only be modified by an administrator with
a good working knowledge of the parameter's impact within the
iSCSI network.
The login parameters are derived from iSCSI proposed standard
RFC 3720. Valid values are:
dataseqinorder yes or no
defaulttime2retain 0-3600
defaulttime2wait 0-3600
firstburstlength 512 to 2^24-1
immediatedata yes or no
initialr2t yes or no
maxburstlength 512 to 2^24-1
datapduinorder yes or no
maxoutstandingr2t 1 to 65535
maxrecvdataseglen 512 to 2^24-1
The initiator can set its own maxrecv‐
datasegmentlen by this option setting.
During the login process, the initiator
side sends this parameter to the target
to declare its max receive segment
length. This parameter setting can be
displayed by the iscsiadm list target-
param -v target command.
-T, --tunable-param <<tunable-prop>=<value>, ...>
Specify one or more tunable parameters for all targets that
initiator node connected.
Note -
Tunable values should only be modified by an administrator
with a good working knowledge of the parameter's impact
within the iSCSI network.
Supported tunable-prop options are:
recv-login-rsp-timeout
Session Login Response Time
The recv-login-rsp-timeout option specifies how long iSCSI
initiator will wait for the response of iSCSI session login
request from the iSCSI target. Valid value is from 0 to
60*60. The default value is 60 seconds.
conn-login-max
Maximized Connection Retry Time
The conn-login-max option lets the iSCSI initiator reestab‐
lish the connection to the target in case of IO timeout or
connection failure during the given time window. Valid
value is from 0 to 60*60. The default value is 180 seconds.
polling-login-delay
Login Retry Time Interval
The polling-login-delay option specifies the time interval
between each login retry when iSCSI initiator to target IO
timeout or connection failure. Valid value is from 0 to
60*60. The default value is 60 seconds.
remove Subcommand
The syntax for the remove subcommand is:
iscsiadm remove direct_object
The remove subcommand supports the following direct_objects:
discovery-address discovery-address, ...
Removes a target device from the list of discovery addresses. A
discovery address (as in the syntax shown below) is an IP address-
port combination used in a SendTargets discovery session. Using
this discovery approach, a target device can inform an initiator of
the target address and target name of each target exposed by that
device. If any target exposed by the discovery address is currently
mounted or there is active I/O on the device, an error of "logical
unit in use" is returned and the operation fails. If the associated
devices are not in use, they are removed.
discovery-address must be formatted as:
<IP address>[:<port>]
There are no options associated with this direct object.
isns-server isns-server, ...
Removes an iSNS server from the list of iSNS server addresses. An
iSNS server address (specified in the syntax shown below) is an IP
address-port combination used in an iSNS discovery session. By us‐
ing iSNS discovery, an iSNS server can provide an initiator with
information about a portal and the name of each target that belongs
to the same discovery domain as that of the initiator. If any tar‐
get discovered by means of iSNS is currently mounted or there is
active I/O on the device, an error of "logical unit in use" is re‐
turned and the operation fails. If the associated devices are not
in use, they are removed.
isns-server must be formatted as:
IP_address[:port]
There are no options associated with this direct object.
static-config static_target, ...
Removes a target from the list of statically discovered targets. If
the target being removed is currently mounted or there is active
I/O on the device, an error of "logical unit in use" is returned
and the operation fails. If a device is not in use, it will be re‐
moved.
static_target must be formatted as:
<target-name>,<target-address>[:port-number][,tpgt]
There are no options associated with this direct object.
target-param target-name
Removes target specified by target-name. The target name is format‐
ted as:
<target-name>
There are no options associated with this direct object. For iSCSI
booting when the Solaris I/O multipathing feature (formerly known
as Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager [STMS] or MPxIO) is enabled, you
cannot remove the target.
Proper Use of Discovery Methods
Do not configure a target to be discovered by both static and dynamic
discovery methods. The consequence of using redundant discovery methods
might be slow performance when communicating with the iSCSI target de‐
vice.
OPTIONS
The following generic options are supported:
-V, --version Displays version information. Stops interpretation of
subsequent arguments.
-?, --help Displays help information. Can be used following an
iscsiadm command with no arguments, following a sub‐
command, or following a subcommand-direct object com‐
bination. Responds with help information appropriate
for your entry. For example, if you enter:
# iscsiadm modify initiator-node --help
...iscsiadm responds with a display of the options
available for that combination of subcommand and di‐
rect object.
