<b>Introduction</b></h3>
<br />
<br />
<b>what is iscsi ?????</b><br />
<br />
In computing, iSCSI (Listeni/a ɪˈ sk ʌ zi/ eye-SKUZ-ee), is an acronym 
for Internet Small Computer System Interface, an Internet Protocol 
(IP)-based storage networking standard for linking data storage 
facilities.<br />
<br />

By carrying SCSI commands over IP networks, iSCSI is used to 
facilitate data transfers over intranets and to manage storage over long
 distances. iSCSI can be used to transmit data over local area networks 
(LANs), wide area networks (WANs), or the Internet and can enable 
location- independent data storage and retrieval.<br />
<br />

The protocol allows clients (called initiators) to send SCSI commands
 (CDBs) to SCSI storage devices (targets) on remote servers.It is a 
storage area network (SAN) protocol,allowing organizations to 
consolidate storage into data center storage arrays while providing 
hosts (such as database and web servers) with the illusion of locally attached disks.<br />
<br />
But here in this practical , we will do iscsi on lan, for an exmaple you
 are linux admin in company , as you have as server of 2 TB and enough 
ram required.You can make this server as an iscsi server or a backup 
server or storage server.<br />

Storage consolidation :<br />
<br />
Organizations move disparate storage resources from servers around their
 network to central locations, often in data centres.This allows for 
more efficiency in the allocation of storage, as the storage itself is 
no longer tied to a particular server. In a SAN environment, a server 
can be allocated a new disk volume without any changes to hardware or cabling.<br />
<br />
<b>Disaster recovery:</b><br />
<br />
Organizations mirror storage resources from one data centre to a remote 
data center, which can serve as a hot standby in the event of a 
prolonged outage. In particular, iSCSI SANs allow entire  disk arrays to
 be migrated across a WAN with minimal configuration changes, in effect 
making storage “routable” in the same manner as network traffic.<br />
<br />

I want to make you understand that here in this practical in our 
company , we are using one machine as a server(iscsi) which we can say 
“target” for better technical understanding or client machine will be 
work as a “initiator” to access storage from target.<br />
<br />

<b>Logical unit number</b><br />
<br />
Main article: Logical unit number In SCSI terminology, LUN stands for logical unit number. A LUN<br />
<br />
represents an individually addressable (logical) SCSI device that is 
part of a physical SCSI device (target). In an iSCSI environment, LUNs 
are essentially numbered disk drives.Dont be confuse.<br />
<br />

iSCSI uses TCP (typically TCP port 3260) for the protocols itself.<br />

iqn is very important while doing this practical, so just we have to 
know this,no need to go in detail.As this is like a name for iscsi 
between target and initiator defined to work in this practical.<br />
<br />
Example:which i m showing here, you will get this more while<br />
ging through practical.<br />

<br />

<b>Security Authentication :</b><br />
<br />
ISCSI initiators and targets prove their identity to each other using 
the CHAP protocol, which includes a mechanism to prevent cleartext 
passwords from appearing on the wire. By itself, the CHAP protocol is 
vulnerable to dictionary attacks, spoofing, or reflection attacks. If 
followed carefully, the rules for using CHAP within iSCSI prevent most of these attacks.<br />
<br />
For more information do check CHAP protocol on web.You will get details.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Step 1: Flush all the firewall rules by <b>.</b></div>
<br />

# iptables -F<br />

#service iptables save<br />

And also check selinux status by sestatus command.<br />

And<br />
<br />
# vi /etc/sysconfig/selinux<br />
<br />
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.<br />
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:<br />
enforcing – SELinux security policy is enforced.<br />
permissive – SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing<br />
disabled – SELinux is fully disabled.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">SELINUX=enabled  </span>         (keep it disabled here)<br />
<br />

Step 2: keep the hostname entries in /etc/hosts file and network file on both target and client.<br />
<br />

# vi /etc/hosts<br />

<br />

# vi /etc/sysconfig /network<br />

firstly ,here i have access to both the machines.<br />
<br />
<br />
 <img alt="first1" class="alignnone  wp-image-402" height="107" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/first1-300x59.jpeg" width="544" /><br />
<br />
<br />
  <br />
 Here for storage sharing, i have added harddisk of 20 GB in target to 
share as a LUN by client.If you have physical, you can add or attach 
physical harddisk either you can add virtual hard-disk , if you are 
working vmvare or virtual box.Now we will go to hosts file to keep 
entries of host name of both<br />
target and client on both sides.<br />
<br />
 <img alt="Selection_315" class="alignnone  wp-image-387" height="125" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Selection_315-300x73.png" width="514" /> <br />
<br />
<br />
Step 3: Create partition of added hard disk and format it with file system.You can check the filesystem by df -T command.<br />
<br />

[root@server ~]# df -T<br />
Filesystem    Type   1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on<br />
/dev/sda3     ext4     7422920   2771180   4268592  40% /<br />
/dev/sda1     ext4      194442     11426    172977   7% /boot<br />

#fdisk /dev/sdb1   ( create a new primary partition )<br />
#mkfs.ext4  /dev/sdb1  (format it with filesystem)<br />
<br />
<img alt="fdisk target" class="alignnone  wp-image-404" height="301" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/fdisk-target-300x189.jpeg" width="478" /><br />
<br />
The above has shown that , on target machine, we have added .You can see /dev/sdb of 22GB has been added.<br />

<br />
<b>On SERVER Side:</b><br />
<br />

Step 4: yum install scsi-target-utils -y<br />
<br />

step 5:#vi /etc/tgt/targets.conf          ( configuation file at target side)<br />
just go the end by pressing shift+G.<br />
<target iqn.2015-03.target.local:initiator.local><br />
backing-store /dev/sdb1<br />
initiator-address 192.168.0.144<br />

incominguser  iscsiadm iscsiadm123<br />
iscsiadm123<br />
</target><br />
<br />
<br />
 <img alt="1503 tgtd" class="alignnone  wp-image-405" height="104" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/1503-tgtd-300x57.jpeg" width="547" /><br />
<br />
 As above target is syntax.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><b>Iqn: ISCSI Qualified Name (IQN)</b></span><br />
<br />
Then target machine(target.local) host name and after initiator machine(initiator.local) hostname.
Then give the disk of Lun you are sharing, in my case i m sharing /dev/sdb1.
Then initiator client IP address.<br />
<br />
Then user name and password on the basis of which our client<br />
machine authenticate with target.<br /><br />
Then end the syntax.
<br />
Step 6: Then start the tgtd service and keep the chkconfig on .<br />
#/etc/init.d/tgtd start<br />
<br />
# chkconfig –levels 235 tgtd on<br />
<br />

Step 7:Then open the tcp port 3260 of iscsi on target machine by 
iptable rule, don’t worry if you don’t  understand,but you need to do 
that if you are using firewalls.<br />
<br />

[root@server ~]# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp –dport 3260 -j ACCEPT<br />
[root@server ~]# service iptables save<br />
<br />
Saving firewall rules to /etc/sysconfig/iptables:          [  OK  ]<br />
<br />

Step 8:Now its time to test, whether upto till now, we have done 
everything right or not.Please go through below command and check 
whether it is showing shared partition or not,because at first time when
 you will do this practical, i m sure you will be amazed to not get this
 .As i also i did not get, but dont worry , try again or check the 
following all , which we have done till now.<br />

<br />
Step 9: To check all parameter is correct<br /><br />
#tgtadm –mode target –op show<br />
Output would be like >><br />
<br />
<img alt="6" class="alignnone  wp-image-389" height="403" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/61-300x273.jpg" width="443" /> <br />
<br />
<br />
As it is showing in LUN:1 as a shared partition of /dev/sdb1.<br />

That all up to now on target machine.Now our job to configure client(initiator machine IP:192.168.0.144).<br />
<br />

<b>ON CLIENT SIDE CONFIGURATION</b><br />
<br />

Step 10: yum -y install iscsi-initiator-utils -y<br />
<br />

Now its time to use iqn , which we have done or used in target machine iscsi tgt configuration file,if you remember.<br />
<br />

Step 11:Go to  file and do some changes.<br />
<br />

#vim  /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi<br />
<br />

InitiatorName=iqn.2015-03.target.local:initiator.local<br />

keep the above entry in above file.You can keep the # symbol on already there or delete it or keep<br />
another line with required information and save the file.<br />
<br />

step 12:  Go to config file .<br />
<br />

Now go to main config file on client side.<br />
<br />
[root@initiator ~]# vi /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf<br />
<br />
:Here in this you have to some changes as required.<br />
# To manually startup the session set to “manual”. The default is<br />
automatic.<br />
<span style="color: red;">node.startup = automatic</span><br />
# To enable CHAP authentication<br />
node.session.auth.authmethod = CHAP<br />
# To set a CHAP username and password for initiator<br />
<span style="color: red;">node.session.auth.username = iscsiadm<br />
node.session.auth.password = iscsiadm123</span><br />
:wq!<br />

Then save the file.<br />
<br />

Step 13: And the start the iscsi daemon and keep it chkconfig on<br />
<br />
#service iscsid start<br />
# chkconfig –levels 235 iscsid on<br />
<br />

Friends as there is caution , you needs to do that don’t start 
service through init script but do start the service by service 
command,other wise if you do by /etc/init.d/iscsid start, it will not 
start.And after that you have to start service by below command.<br />
<br />

step 14: /etc/rc.d/init.d/iscsid force-start<br />
<br />
<br />
 <img alt="10" class="alignnone  wp-image-393" height="132" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/10-300x76.jpeg" width="521" /> <br />
<br />
<br />
step 15: Now to test on client side , you have to put below command.<br />
<br />

#iscsiadm –mode discovery -t  sendtargets –portal 192.168.0.44   (here 192.168.0.44 is target ip )<br />
Output would be like ><br />
192.168.0.29:3260,1 iqn.2015-03.target.local:initiator.local <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<img alt="123e" class="alignnone  wp-image-406" height="65" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/123e-300x35.jpeg" width="557" /> <br />
<br />
step 16: Now its time to connect to target,you have to put below 
command, and when you will get this type of output, showing 
successful,it means that you have connected to target from client 
machine and now can that /dev/sdb1 partition on you system as locally.<br />
<br />

#iscsiadm –mode discovery -t  sendtargets –portal 192.168.0.44  -l <br />
<br />
<img alt="124e" class="alignnone  wp-image-407" height="113" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/124e-300x55.jpeg" width="616" /> <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now you have login to target machine and shared partition /dev/sdb1 
is now accessible to you.As you can check this by fdisk -l command.<br />

Now put fdisk -l command , to check shared partition /dev/sdb.<br />
Yipee!!! i got<br />
<br />
 <img alt="fdisk target" class="alignnone  wp-image-404" height="323" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/fdisk-target-300x189.jpeg" width="513" /> <br />
<br />
<br />
Step 17:You will get device uid by this command.<br />
<br />

#blkid /dev/sdb  <br />
<br />
<img alt="14" class="alignnone  wp-image-395" height="82" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/14-300x26.jpeg" width="946" /> <br />
<br />
For permanent mounting, use mount it in /etc/fstab file.<br />
<br />

#vim /etc/fstab<br />
<br />

UUID=”1e38954b-80df-4060-9ac7-77e335a”   /mnt   ext4   _netdev  0 0<br />
Where<br />
• UUID=”1e38954b-80df-4060″ of NAS partition of target Server<br />
• /mnt is mount point<br />
<br />
•Ext3 : file system used<br />
<br />
•netdev : device type may be _netdev,rw<br />
<br />

_# mount –a<br />
<br />
never restart initiator except shutdown<br />
<br />
# umount /mnt<br />
<br />
# chkconfig netfs on<br />
<br />
# service netfs restart<br />
<br />

Then you can check this mount by df -H command.<br />

# yum install webmin<br />
You can now login to webmin as https://baculaserver:10000/ as root with your root password.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Step 2:Install Mysql and Bacula:</strong><br />
# yum install mysql-devel mysql-server<br />
# yum install bacula-storage-mysql bacula-docs<br />
# yum install bacula-director-mysql bacula-console<br />
# yum install bacula-traymonitor</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Start and Configure Mysql for Bacula:</strong><br />
# service mysqld start<br />
# chkconfig mysqld on</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Change the Mysql root password if you have a fresh install of Mysql:</strong><br />
# mysqladmin -u root password ‘new-password’</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Now, configure Mysql for bacula, for this run the following scripts, i used password as “redhat”:</strong><br />
# /usr/libexec/bacula/grant_mysql_privileges -u root –p<br />
Enter password: redhat<br />
# /usr/libexec/bacula/create_mysql_database -u root –p<br />
Enter password: redhat<br />
# /usr/libexec/bacula/make_mysql_tables -u root –p<br />
Enter password: redhat<br />
# /usr/libexec/bacula/grant_bacula_privileges -u root –p<br />
Enter password: redhat</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Now, Check mysql database for bacula:</strong><br />
Baculaserver # mysql -u root –p<br />
Enter password:<br />
mysql> show databases; (let’s see what databases the bacula user have access to)<br />
mysql> use bacula; (set default database to bacula (bacula is the name of the Catalog database).<br />
mysql> show tables; (let’s see what tables are in the Catalog database)<br />
mysql> quit (quit MySQL CLI prompt to return to OS system prompt)<br />
If you saw bacula in database as well as tables then your mysql database is working fine and database is created.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Step5:</strong><strong>Edit Storage {…} section in bacula-dir.conf file:</strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Name: we are going to use 2 devices (disks) for backup, so I like the name of this section to represent the disk number of the device, this section is going to point to filestorage having name file and filestorage2 is having name file2.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Address: ip address of the pc which is having storage available.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
SDPort: the port on which to connect the Storage Daemon.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Password: this password should match the bacula-sd.conf Director {…} section.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Media Type: Bacula supports many different media types, eg. DDS-4 tapes, DVDs etc. We are using files to store the backup data, so we specify the Media Type = File.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">

<strong>Step 7:</strong><strong>Open bconsole.conf file and edit bconsole.conf Director Section on bacula server:</strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<em># vim /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf</em></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Name: Here you must use the same name you gave the bacula-dir.conf Director {} section (there the Director defines itself).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
DIRport: The port on which the Console will contact the Director.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Address: the address on which the Director run</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Password: the password should match the password in the bacula-dir Director {} section.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<a href="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/9.jpg" style="color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none !important;"><img alt="9" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-281" height="108" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/9.jpg" style="border: 0px; display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;" width="404" /></a></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Edit name, address and password. It should be same as mentioned in bacula-dir.conf file.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Step 8:</strong><strong>Create the backup folders: </strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
I am configuring storage on the same machine which i used for bacula server.So, storage and bacula server is on same PC.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
# mkdir /backup1<br />
# mkdir /backup2<br />
#chown -R bacula:bacula /backup1<br />
#chown -R bacula:bacula /backup2<br />
#chmod -R 700 /backup1<br />
#chmod -R 700 /backup2</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Step 9:</strong><strong>Now,Open bacula-sd.conf file and edit</strong> <strong>storage Section:</strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<em># vim /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf</em></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Name: This same name is also in the bacula-dir.conf Storage {…} section.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
SDPort: The port on which this Storage daemon will listen (and therefore the port on which the Director must contact this Storage daemon).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
SDAdress: mention IP of the storage server.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<a href="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/10.jpg" style="color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none !important;"><img alt="10" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-282" height="115" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/10.jpg" style="border: 0px; display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;" width="522" /></a></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Now, Edit Director Section in bacula-sd.conf file:</strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Name: the name of the Director that can administer this Storage daemon.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Password: the password that the Director must use to administer this Storage daemon. This same password is also in the bacula-dir.conf Storage {…} section.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Now, Edit device Section in bacula-sd.conf file:</strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Name: this will specify a disk device to use for storage.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Archive Device: here you specify the mount point of the actual device (the actual hard drive I want to use is mounted as /bacula/backup1). You can also use just a folder to store your backup, it does not need to be a fresh disk.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<a href="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/121.jpg" style="color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none !important;"><img alt="12" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-284" height="165" src="http://linuxgateway.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/121.jpg" style="border: 0px; display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%; vertical-align: middle;" width="596" /></a></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
<strong>Step 10:</strong><strong>Edit message Section in bacula-sd.conf file:</strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
Change to correct Director Name, in our case its kvit-dir. This section Send all messages to the Director, mount messages also are sent to the email address.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 23px; position: relative; top: -9px;">
