[Linux-cluster] iSCSI Setup as Alternative to Shared Storage..

[Singh Raina, Ajeet]

I want to setup iSCSI as I am running short of Shared Storage.

In one of the Doc
http://mail.digicola.com/wiki/index.php?title=User:Martin:iSCSI it says
that :


[doc]


Install the Target 


1. Install RHEL4, I used kickstart with just "@ base" for packages.
Configure the system with two drives sda and sdb or create two logical
volumes(lvm). The first disk is for the OS and the second for the iSCSI
storage

[/doc]

 

My Hard Disk Partition says:

Since I need to make entry on:

 

iscsi target configuration 
 
Target iqn.2000-12.com.digicola:storage.lun1
        IncomingUser gfs secretsecret
        OutgoingUser
        Lun 0 Path=/dev/sdb,Type=fileio
        Alias iDISK0
        #MaxConnections  6
 
In /etc/ietd.conf
 
Should I need to make separate partition or mention ??? under Lun 0
path=??? Entry?
 
Pls Help
