36 Detailed End-to-End iSCSI Setup

Configuring NICs for iSCSI traffic in the PowerVault NX1950 storage

solution in cluster mode— If you are setting up PowerVault NX1950

cluster solution as an iSCSI Target, perform the following prerequisites:

– Follow the steps listed in the section

Creating a Highly Available

iSCSI Target

in the

Dell PowerVault NX1950 Cluster Systems

Installation and Troubleshooting Guide

on the Dell Support website at

support.dell.com

– Turn off the firewall in all cluster nodes to ensure proper iSCSI Target

configuration. You can turn on the firewall after successful Target

configuration. You can configure Active/Active clustering to provide

high availability for iSCSI storage using 3.1 iSCSI Target. The

following steps outline the procedure for 3.1 iSCSI Target

configuration.

You can configure the cluster environment for Active/Active iSCSI target

access using the

iSCSI Software Target option

in the

PowerVault NX1950

Management Console

. As a part of the initial configuration, you must

perform the following tasks:

– Create a highly-available instance (resource group) for Active/Active

clustering. Use the iSCSI Software Target MMC interface to create a

iSCSI highly-available instance.

– Highly-available instances are used to manage iSCSI Target resources,

including iSCSI Targets, iSCSI Virtual Disks, snapshots, and

schedules. You have the option of creating new highly-available

instances for iSCSI storage or use previously-configured highly-

available instances. You can use the same resource group to provide

high availability for both file sharing and block sharing.

– Configure the IP addresses for the iSCSI highly-available instances. If

you do not configure the cluster environment to support Active/Active

clustering, iSCSI Target software creates iSCSI Targets and iSCSI

Virtual Disks in a non-clustered environment by default.
