How to Configure iSNS Discovery for the Solaris iSCSI Target

If your network includes a third-party iSNS server or a Sun iSNS server, you can set up iSNS target discovery on your Solaris iSCSI targets.

This procedure assumes that you are logged in to the local system where you want to access a configured iSCSI target device.

1. Become superuser.

2. Add the iSNS server information.

   For example:

   initiator# iscsitadm modify admin --isns-server ip-address or hostname[:port]

   Identify the ip-address of the iSNS server in your network.

   This step adds the iSNS server information to all of the Solaris iSCSI targets.

3. Enable iSNS server discovery.

   For example:

   initiator# iscsitadm modify admin --isns-access enable

   This step enables iSNS discovery for all of the Solaris iSCSI targets.
