Creating an iSCSI host and virtual disks for the Solaris iSCSI Initiator

See

, page 129, to create an iSCSI

host entry and to present LUNs to an iSCSI host in HP Command View. The host mode setting for

Solaris is Linux/Mac.

Command View 6.0.2 and 7.0 only—Remove LUN 0 from the Solaris iSCSI

Initiator using the CLI

By default HP Command View 6.0.2 and 7.0 will assign LUN 0 to each iSCSI Initiator that is presented a

virtual disk. Because the Solaris iSCSI Initiator does not recognize LUN 0 as the EVA controller console

LUN the initiator will try to bring LUN 0 online resulting in the following warning:

Mar 21 08:04:09 hdxs8j iscsi:

[ID 248668 kern.warning] WARNING:

iscsi driver unable to online iqn.1986-03.com.hp:fcgw.mpx100:hdxh05-
m2.0.50001fe1500aef60.50001fe1500aef68 LUN 0

To remove LUN 0 from the Solaris iSCSI Initiator using the CLI:

Use telnet to connect to the mpx100/100b management port, or connect to the mpx100/100b serial

port using the HP-supplied connector.
The mpx100/100b management port’s default IP address is 10.0.0.1/255.0.0.0. The mpx100/100b

serial port’s default setting is 115200/8/n/1.

To log in, type:
• User name: guest
• Password: password

To enable administrator privileges, type:
• admin start
