Hi Geoff, It looks like the itadm utility is limiting the number of targets. I have not walked all the code but I do not see any reason this cannot be increased to 1024 in the itadm user utility.
http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/lib/libiscsit/common/libiscsit.h 43<http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/lib/libiscsit/common/libiscsit.h#43>#define MAX_TARGETS<http://src.illumos.org/source/s?refs=MAX_TARGETS&project=illumos-gate> 255 /* maximum targets that may be created */ You could submit an RFE for this one, it does look like a simple change. Normally I would say 255 is more that a server should have defined but if the targets are largely idle then more than 255 would be a possible use case. Also with the ever increasing hardware capability emerging 255 will soon become a low limit.

Hi Mike. I tested it using a for loop to create > 255 for i in {1..260}; do itadm create-target; done then it will error out with the: "Maximum of 255 iSCSI targets itadm create-target failed with error 7 255 is a bit small, but 1024 would be enough for us; really it ought to be enough for anyone :) Geoff _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org<mailto:OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org> http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
