iSCSI LUN with ZFS pool on shared DAS

Open san4ez1008 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hi! Is it possible using linstor to create iSCSITarget and iSCSILun on two nodes that are connected to JBOD with several disks from which the zpool is assembled? 4 disks in draid1 on zpool create a 1 DRBD resource Give whis resource by iSCSI to VMware.

Hi,

I'm not 100% sure what you are asking, but it is not possible to create iSCSI targets with LINSTOR directly.

However, you can create highly available iSCSI targets (and more) using LINSTOR and drbd-reactor. The LINSTOR Gateway project actually serves this exact purpose.

Maybe check out that project and see if it fits your needs.

I found a guide on creating a target using LINSTOR Gateway , but I'm interested in the ability to create a target from a zpool I previously created, which is assembled from disks connected to a JBOD.
