If the target is connected to VSP One SDS Block via a means other than openiscsi, contact customer support which handles the connection method.

  1. Verify the connection information on the compute node that has a duplicated initiator name (iSCSI name).
    # iscsiadm -m node

    Of the displayed information, record the targetname and portalname.

    After the command is run, a targetname and portalname are indicated as shown in the following example display.

  2. Disconnect from the initiator that has a duplicated initiator name (iSCSI name). For <targetname> and <portalname>, specify the targetname and portalname recorded in step 1.
    # iscsiadm -m node -T <targetname> --portal <portalname> --logout
  3. Edit the /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi file using an editor such as vi commands.
    # vi /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi 
  4. In the file, change the "InitiatorName = <duplicated-initiator-name (iSCSI-name)>" line to a unique initiator name (iSCSI name)
    InitiatorName= <ubique-initiator-name (iSCSI-name)> 
  5. Reconnect the initiator. For <targetname> and <portalname>, specify the targetname and portalname recorded in step 1.
    # iscsiadm -m node -T <targetname> --portal <portalname> --login
  6. After reconnection, verify that volumes are visible from the compute node.

    If volumes are still not visible after reconnection, check for other failures by following If a failure status is detected in the storage cluster.
