After working on my automated vmware provisioning script this afternoon (I have posted my vmware scripts at http://thewybles.com/~charles/apps/vmware-automation-scripts-0.1.tar.gz)



I am now setting up an ISCSI target. I grabbed the latest stable package from http://iscsitarget.sourceforge.net/ (0.4.15) and attempted to install it on a more or less default CENTOS5 install.

I had to install gcc,openssl-devel,kernel-devel and then do a

make KSRC=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.1.3.el5-i686/
make KSRC=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.1.3.el5-i686/ install


I then created a new vmware disk and hooked it up to the virtual machine. Then edited the /etc/ietd.conf file to share it via iscsi.

All in all a very easy process.


Off to create PXE boot server.

    And if you're looking for Windows-based iSCSI target you may give a try to the StarWind from Rocket Division Software. It's absolutely *FREE* and still supported! Just in case here's an URL:

    Thanks!

    P.S. And they also have free iSCSI Initiator called StarPort. URL:
