Iscsi Cake 18 Install Page

Define a target IQN (iSCSI Qualified Name). Standard format: iqn.YYYY-MM.com.domain:unique-name

/> iscsi/ create iqn.2025-02.com.example:cake18-target1

iscsiadm -m node --op=update --name node.session.auth.authmethod --value=CHAP iscsiadm -m node --op=update --name node.session.auth.username --value=myuser iscsiadm -m node --op=update --name node.session.auth.password --value=mypass iscsi cake 18 install

Allow iSCSI traffic (port 3260 TCP):

sudo firewall-cmd --add-port=3260/tcp --permanent
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

The iscsi cake 18 install is incomplete without a working initiator. Let’s set up a client machine. Define a target IQN (iSCSI Qualified Name)

# Create an RBD pool and image for iSCSI
ceph osd pool create iscsi-pool 64 64
rbd create --size 100G iscsi-pool/disk1

sudo targetcli ls

Expected output shows backstore, target, LUN, and ACL. iscsiadm -m node --op=update --name node

sudo iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.1.10
sudo iscsiadm -m node --login

Verify connection:

lsblk

You should see a new disk (e.g., /dev/sdc).
