Set Iscsi-Parameters - HP P2000 G3 Cli Reference Manual

set iscsi-parameters

Description For iSCSI, changes system-wide iSCSI parameters.
Syntax
set iscsi-parameters
[chap enabled|disabled|on|off]
[jumbo-frame enabled|disabled|on|off]
[speed auto|1gbps]
[isns enabled|disabled|on|off]
[isns-ip iSNS-IP]
[isns-alt-ip iSNS-IP]
[iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6]
Parameters chap enabled|disabled|on|off
Enables or disables use of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. Disabled by default.
jumbo-frame enabled|disabled|on|off
Enables or disables support for jumbo frames. Disabled by default. A normal frame can contain
1500 bytes whereas a jumbo frame can contain a maximum of 9000 bytes for larger data transfers.
Use of jumbo frames can succeed only if jumbo-frame support is enabled on all network components
in the data path.
speed auto|1gbps
Sets the host port link speed.
• auto: Auto-negotiates the proper speed. This is the default.
• 1gbs: Forces the speed to 1 Gbit/sec, overriding a downshift that can occur during
auto-negotiation with 1-Gbit/sec HBAs. This setting does not apply to 10-Gbit/sec HBAs.
isns enabled|disabled|on|off
Enables or disables registration with a specified Internet Storage Name Service server, which
provides name-to-IP-address mapping. Disabled by default.
isns-ip iSNS-IP
Specifies the IP address of an iSNS server. The default address is all zeroes.
isns-alt-ip iSNS-IP
Optional. Specifies the IP address of an alternate iSNS server, which can be on a different subnet.
The default address is all zeroes.
iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6
Optional. Specifies whether to use IP version 4 (IPv4) or 6 (IPv6) for addressing controller iSCSI
ports.
• ipv4: Lets you specify addresses in dot-decimal format, where the four octets of the address use
decimal values without leading zeroes and the octets are separated by a period; for example,
10.132.2.205. This option is the default.
• ipv6: Lets you specify addresses using eight groups of four hexadecimal digits, where the
groups are separated by a colon. All groups must be specified. For example,
0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0A90:3442.
Example For a storage system whose host ports are connected to different subnets, enable CHAP, specify the
IP address of the iSNS server on each subnet, and enable registration with either server:
# set iscsi-parameters chap enabled isns enabled isns-ip 10.10.10.93 isns-alt-ip
10.11.10.90
Success: Command completed successfully. - iSCSI parameter(s) were changed
successfully. (2012-01-21 12:21:15)
Specify that iSCSI ports will use IPv6 addressing:
# set iscsi-parameters iscsi-ip-version ipv6
Success: Command completed successfully. - iSCSI parameter(s) were changed
successfully. (2012-01-21 12:21:20)
