How to Monitor an iSCSI Configuration

Initiator node name: ign.1986-03.com.sun:01:0003ba4d233b.425c293c
Initiator node alias: zzr1200
       Login Parameters (Default/Configured):
             Header Digest: NONE/-
             Data Digest: NONE/-
       Authentication Type: NONE
       RADIUS Server: NONE

# iscsiadm list discovery

Discovery:
   Static: enabled
   Send Targets: enabled
   iSNS: enabled

Example

The following example shows how to display the parameter settings for a specific iSCSI target.

# iscsiadm list target-param iqn.1992-08.com.abcstorage.sn.33592219
Target: iqn.1992-08.com.abcstorage:sn.33592219

The iscsiadm list target-param -v command displays the following information:

The authentication settings for the target
The default settings for the target login parameters
The configured value for each login parameter

The iscsiadm list target-param -v command displays the default parameter value before the / designator and the configured parameter value after the / designator. If you have not configured any parameters, the configured parameter value displays as a hyphen. For more information, see the following examples:

# iscsiadm list target-param -v eui.50060e8004275511

Target: eui 50060e8004275511
       Alias: -
       Bi-directional Authentication: disabled
       Authentication Type: NONE
       Login Parameters (Default/Configured):
             Data Sequence In Order: yes/-
             Data PDU In Order: yes/-
             Default Time to Retain: 20/-
             Default Time to Wait: 2/-
             Error Recovery Level: 0/-
             First Burst Length: 65536/-
             Immediate Data: yes/-
             Initial Ready To Transfer (R2T): yes/-
             Max Burst Length: 262144/-
             Max Outstanding R2T: 1/-
             Max Receive Data Segment Length: 65536/-
             Max Connections: 1/-
             Header Digest: NONE/-
             Data Digest: NONE/-
        Configured Sessions: 1

The following example output shows the parameters that were negotiated between the target and the initiator.

# iscsiadm list target -v eui.50060e8004275511
