There are times at certain environment that the supposed to be fixed IP Address
of the shared storage have to change.
Althought ,am having difficulties to contemplate the reality that it actually changed twice!
so, from the earlier on, the factory setting is something like 192.168.0.1/24
then goes to another set of “fixed” IP Address.
And now the third round of this..
the result, whenever this one changed.. all the client trying to attach to this
particular iSCSI storage, it need to probe for new IP.
And as past IP setting .. it was saying “portal unreachable”..
in this case only one out of two setting is up.
resulting a failure in status.. the storage not mounted..
[root@node1~]# /etc/init.d/iscsi restart Stopping iSCSI daemon: iscsid dead but pid file exists [ OK ] Starting iSCSI daemon: [ OK ] [ OK ] Setting up iSCSI targets: Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2004-08.jp.buffalo:LOMBOK-DB-001D7326325B:array1, portal: 192.168.1.145,3260] Login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2004-08.jp.buffalo:LOMBOK-DB-001D7326325B:array1, portal: 192.168.1.145,3260]: successful Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2004-08.jp.buffalo:LOMBOK-DB-001D7326325B:array1, portal: 192.198.1.148,3260] Login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2004-08.jp.buffalo:LOMBOK-DB-001D7326325B:array1, portal: 192.198.1.148,3260]: failure [ FAILED ] |
so, the question.. how to remove those invalid target ?
Here is how to delete old target.
replace the ip with the old IP setting.
iscsiadm -m node -p 192.198.1.148 --op=delete |
to add the new one ..
iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.1.145 |
after that tweak the udev rules ..
vi /etc/udev/rules.d/buffalo.rules |
type the following content to it..
KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{model}=="VIRTUAL-DISK", SYMLINK+="usbhd%n
so.. it would sym-link the iSCSI drive to
/dev/usbhd1
udevcontrol reload_rules
# restart iscsi..
/etc/init.d/iscsi restart
see the new dev ..
shall had something like this..
ll /dev lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Dec 22 23:02 usbhd -> sdb lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Dec 22 23:02 usbhd1 -> sdb1 |
which later can be used by cluster suite to mount /dev/usbhd1 to something like /data
which is transparent/similar on both nodes regardless it had the USB drive/dongle or anything connected to its
system at the same time.
