I'm not sure if this is a problem with the iscsitarget or zfs. I'd greatly
appreciate it if it gets moved to the proper list.
Well I'm just about out of ideas on what might be wrong..
Quick history:
I installed OS 2008.05 when it was SNV_86 to try out ZFS with VMWare. Found out
that multilun's

Also I had read your blog post previously.
I will be taking advantage of the cloning/snapshot section of your blog once I
am successful writing to the Targets.
Thanks again!

Hi,
I rebooted the server after I submitted the information to release the locks
set up on my ESX host.
After the reboot: I reran the iscsitadm list target -v and the GUIDs showed up.
Only interesting problem: the GUID's are identical (any problems with that?)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# iscsitadm li
A couple of updates:
Installed Opensolaris on a Poweredge 1850 with a single network card, default
iscsitarget configuration (no special tweaks or tpgt settings), vmotion was
about 10 percent successful before I received write errors on disk.
10 percent better than the Poweredge 1900 iscsitarge
The poweredge 1850 has an intel etherexpress pro 1000 internal cards in it.
However, some new updates, even the microsoft initiator hung writing a 1.5
gigabyte file to the iscsitarget on the opensolaris box.
I've installed linux iscsitarget on the same box and will reattempt the iscsi
targets
one more update:
common hardware between all my machines soo far has been the PERC (Poweredge
Raid Controllers) or also known as the LSI MEGA RAID controller.
The 1850 has a PERC 4d/i
the 1900 has a PERC 5/i
I'll be testing the iscsitarget with a SATA controller to test my hypothesis.

Firmware upgrade was unsuccessful of the PERC raid controller.
I tested with Vista 64 bit initiator and it experienced the same issue as the
VMware initiators. If someone has a poweredge 1850/1900/1950 server that has
been successul please let me know what you've done or your hardware profile.
so I found some more information and have been at it diligently.
Checking my hardware bios, Dell likes to share a lot of it's IRQs with other
peripherals.
back in the old days when we were limited to just 15 IRQs it was imperative
that certain critical hardware had it's own IRQ. It may seem to
network card, but it doesn't
seem to want to get enabled in opensolaris even though drivers are available
and installed. maybe wrong drivers?
I'll continue some more, but at this time i'm also out of options.

So it's finally working: nothing special was done to get it working either
which is extremely vexing!
I disabled the I/OAT DMA feature from the BIOS that apparently assists the
network card and enabled the TPGT option on the iscsi target. I have two
iscsitargets, one 100G on a mirror on the int
vice 0x164c
Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet
I will submit the information that you had asked in email very soon.

Nigel,
I have sent you an email with the output that you were looking for.
Once a solution has been discovered I'll post it on here so everyone can see.

Not sure where to put this but I am cc'ing the ZFS - discussion board.
I was successfull in creating iscsi shares using ZFS set shareiscsi=on with 2
thin provisioned partitions of 1TB each (zfs create -s -V 1tb idrive/d1).
Access to the shares with an iscsi initiator was successful, all was smoo
16 matches
