CAUTION:

The initiator name (iSCSI name) of the compute node to be registered with VSP One SDS Block must be unique in the system. Verify it before registration. It is impossible to see the volume from a compute node whose initiator name (iSCSI name) is the same as that of another compute node.

Also, "iqn" and "eui" at the beginning of the initiator name (iSCSI name) cannot be uppercase. It can only be specified in lower case.

  • Required role: VpsStorage

  • The information about the applicable compute node must be registered beforehand.

  1. Verify the initiator name (iSCSI name) of the applicable compute node.

    For details, see the documentation for the OS used on the compute node.

  2. Verify that the initiator name (iSCSI name) verified in step 1 is not the same as the initiator name (iSCSI name) of another compute node.

    If they are the same, change the initiator name (iSCSI name).

  3. Verify the VPS ID and conditions set for the VPS (upper limit for the number of initiators).

    If you want to specify a VPS by its name in the CLI, verify the VPS name.

    REST API: GET /v1/objects/virtual-private-storages

    CLI: vps_list

  4. Verify the ID of the applicable compute node.

    If you use the CLI to specify a compute node by nickname, check the nickname of the compute node.

    REST API: GET /v1/objects/servers

    CLI: server_list

  5. Register information about the intended initiator.

    Run either of the following commands with the ID of the compute node, connection protocol for the initiator, and iSCSI name of the initiator.

    If you use the CLI, you can specify a nickname instead of the compute node ID.

    REST API: POST /v1/objects/servers/<id>/hbas

    CLI: hba_create

    Verify the job ID which is displayed after the command is run.

  6. Verify the state of the job.

    Run either of the following commands with the job ID specified.

    GET /v1/objects/jobs/<jobId>

    CLI: job_show

    If the job state is "Succeeded", the job is completed.

  7. Obtain a list of information about initiators and verify that the information about the intended initiator is registered.

    Run either of the following commands with the compute node ID specified.

    If you use the CLI, you can specify a nickname instead of the compute node ID.

    REST API: GET /v1/objects/servers/<id>/hbas

    CLI: hba_list
