If you have multiple volumes on the target, you’ll see them all in GUI file manager.
All volumes on the Drobo were ‘visible’ in file manager.*note* I’d read that this Drobo didn’t support ext4 and after formatting the volume, I found that to be false.Ĭonfirm that you can write to it # touch /drobo/testfileĬheck the file system disk space usage. If it returns 1 aligned, you’re good to go.
2048s is a good choice for the starting sector.Ĭheck the disk alignment # parted /dev/sdb align-check optimal 1 Read this blog post and make the adjustments. Warning: The resulting partition is not properly aligned for best performance If by chance you get an error that reads: # parted -script /dev/sdb mklabel primary 0% 100% Run It again to create the primary partition # parted -script /dev/sdb mklabel msdos Run the parted command against the device to create a new disk label. # dmesg | tail Time to partition the device. If the login is successful, run the dmesg | tail command to see if the kernel sees the logical blocks. List out the /proc/partitions file to see the new disk. Once your volumes are discovered, you can login to them # iscsiadm -m node -T :1 -p 10.253.52.25 -login # iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 10.253.53.25 Use the iscsiadm command to discover the target. # cat /proc/partitionsĪdd the target name to /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi file, save and exit. Once you login to the iSCSI volume, a new one will appear and that’s the one we’ll format. List out the /proc/partitions file to see the devices that you have currently.

On the CentOS server, install the iscsi package # yum -y install iscsi-initiator-utils $ sudo yum install -y scsi-target-utils Configure the server I installed the iscsi initiator utilities. **note** your Drobo must be on the same subnet as your server. I also disabled SELinux on this test box. I did not enable CHAP, but it can be easily configured on the machine. Information you’ll need to connect to machine:

(See Drobo Online User Guide) PreparationĪfter configuring the device’s IP and other settings via USB from my Windows desktop using Drobo Dashboard, I created a 1TB, unformatted volume. The Drobo and the host computer must be on the same subnet in order for this to work.
