iSCSI节点名称有两种格式，即 iqn-type 格式和 eui-type 格式。

iqn-type的格式为:

iqn.yyyy-mm.backward_naming_authority:unique_device_name

在Linux上的格式为:

iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:RandomNumber

通常我们可以把RandomNumber更改为具有意义的名称如主机名称等。

缺省的，生成的节点名称可以在/etc/initiatorname.iscsi 得到.

InitiatorName=iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:01.ed671bf29e

我们可以修改为:

InitiatorName=iqn.1987-05.com.cisco:test2

重新启动iscsi服务后，Netapp端就能够正确识别initiator.

此时可以从主机上获得相关SCSI设备信息:

iscsi-sfnet: Loading iscsi_sfnet version 4:0.1.11-1

iscsi-sfnet: Control device major number 254

iscsi-sfnet:host3: Session established

scsi3 : SFNet iSCSI driver

scsi: unknown device type 31

Vendor: NETAPP Model: LUN Rev: 0.2

Type: Unknown ANSI SCSI revision: 04

Vendor: NETAPP Model: LUN Rev: 0.2

Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 04

SCSI device sda: 41943040 512-byte hdwr sectors (21475 MB)

SCSI device sda: drive cache: write through

sda: sda1 sda2

Attached scsi disk sda at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 1

可以通过fdisk来分区使用iscsi设备:

[root@test2 ~]# fdisk /dev/sda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 20480.

There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,

and could in certain setups cause problems with:

1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)

2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs

(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 21.4 GB, 21474836480 bytes

64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 20480 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System

/dev/sda1 1 3907 4000752 83 Linux

/dev/sda2 3908 20480 16970752 83 Linux

Command (m for help): q

使用iscsi-ls命令可以看到更为详细的磁盘信息:

[root@test2 ~]# iscsi-ls -l
