+
+
+
+2. Introduction
+===============
+
+Open-iSCSI project is a high-performance, transport independent,
+multi-platform implementation of RFC3720 iSCSI.
+
+Open-iSCSI is partitioned into user and kernel parts.
+
+The kernel portion of Open-iSCSI is a from-scratch code
+licensed under GPL. The kernel part implements iSCSI data path
+(that is, iSCSI Read and iSCSI Write), and consists of two
+loadable modules: iscsi_if.ko and iscsi_tcp.ko.
+
+User space contains the entire control plane: configuration
+manager, iSCSI Discovery, Login and Logout processing,
+connection-level error processing, Nop-In and Nop-Out handling,
+and (in the future:) Text processing, iSNS, SLP, Radius, etc.
+
+The user space Open-iSCSI consists of a daemon process called
+iscsid, and a management utility iscsiadm.
+
+
+3. Installation
+===============
+
+As of today, the Open-iSCSI Initiator requires a host running the
+Linux operating system with kernel version 2.6.11, or later. You need to
+enable "Cryptographic API" under "Cryptographic options" in the
+kernel config. You also need to enable "CRC32c CRC algorithm" if
+you use header or data digests. They are the kernel options,
+CONFIG_CRYPTO and CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32C, respectively.
+
+Compilation of the kernel Opne-iSCSI modules requires a path
+to kernel sources:
+
+ make KSRC=<kernel-src>
+
+or cross-compilation:
+
+ make KSRC=<kernel-src> KARCH="ARCH=um"
+
+
+4. Open-iSCSI daemon
+====================
+
+The daemon implements control path of iSCSI protocol, plus some management
+facilities. For example, the daemon could be configured to automatically
+re-start discovery at startup, based on the contents of persistent
+iSCSI database (see next section).
+
+For help, run:
+
+ ./iscsid --help
+
+Usage: iscsid [OPTION]
+
+ -c, --config=[path] Execute in the config file (/etc/iscsid.conf).
+ -f, --foreground run iscsid in the foreground
+ -d, --debug debuglevel print debugging information
+ -u, --uid=uid run as uid, default is current user
+ -g, --gid=gid run as gid, default is current user group
+ -h, --help display this help and exit
+ -v, --version display version and exit
+
+
+
+5. Open-iSCSI Configuration Utility
+===================================
+
+Open-iSCSI persistent configuration is implemented as a DBM database
+available on all Linux installations.
+
+The database contains two tables:
+
+- Discovery table (discovery.db);
+- Node table (node.db).
+
+The regular place for iSCSI database files: /var/db/iscsi/*.db
+
+The iscsiadm utility is a command-line tool to manage (update, delete,
+insert, query) the persistent database.
+
+The utility presents set of operations that a user can perform
+on iSCSI nodes, sessions, connections, and discovery records.
+
+Note that some of the iSCSI Node and iSCSI Discovery operations
+do not require iSCSI daemon (iscsid) loaded.
+
+For help, run:
+
+ ./iscsiadm --help
+
+Usage: iscsiadm [OPTION]
+
+ -m, --mode <op> specify operational mode op = <discovery|node>
+ -m discovery --type=[type] --portal=[ip:port] --login
+ perform [type] discovery for target portal with
+ ip-address [ip] and port [port]. Initiate Login for
+ each discovered target if --login is specified
+ -m discovery display all discovery records from internal
+ persistent discovery database
+ -m discovery --record=[id] --login
+ perform discovery based on record [id] in database
+ -m discovery --record=[id] --op=[op] [--name=[name] --value=[value]]
+ perform specific DB operation [op] for specific
+ discovery record with [id]. It could be one of:
+ [new], [delete], [update] or [show]. In case of
+ [update], you have to provide [name] and [value]
+ you wish to update
+ -m node display all discovered nodes from internal
+ persistent discovery database
+ -m node --record=[id] [--login|--logout]
+ -m node --record=[id] --op=[op] [--name=[name] --value=[value]]
+ perform specific DB operation [op] for specific
+ node with record [id]. It could be one of:
+ [new], [delete], [update] or [show]. In case of
+ [update], you have to provide [name] and [value]
+ you wish to update
+ -m session display all active sessions and connections
+ -m session --record=[id[:cid]] [--logout]
+ perform operation for specific session with
+ record [id] or display statistics if no operation
+ specified. Operation will affect one connection
+ only if [:cid] is specified
+ -d, --debug debuglevel print debugging information
+ -V, --version display version and exit
+ -h, --help display this help and exit
+
+
+ Usage Examples:
+
+ 1) SendTargets iSCSI Discovery:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m discovery --type sendtargets --portal 192.168.1.1:3260
+
+ 2) iSCSI Login:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --record 0f23e4 --login
+
+ 3) iSCSI Logout:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --record 0f23e4 --logout
+
+ 4) Changing iSCSI parameter:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --record 0f23e4 --op update \
+ -n node.cnx[0].iscsi.MaxRecvDataSegmentLength -v 65536
+
+ 5) Adding custom iSCSI Node:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --op new --portal 192.168.0.1:3260
+ new iSCSI node record added: [0a45f8]
+
+ 6) Removing iSCSI Node:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --op delete --record 0a45f8
+
+ 7) Display iSCSI Node configuration:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --record 0a45f8
+
+ or
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --op show --record 0a45f8
+
+
+6. Configuration
+================
+
+The default configuration file is /etc/iscsid.conf. This file contains
+only configuration that could be overwritten by iSCSI Discovery,
+or manualy updated via iscsiadm utility. Its OK if this file does not
+exist in which case compiled-in default configuration will take place
+for newer discovered Target nodes.
+
+See the man page and the example file for the current syntax.
+(no man page yet...)
+
+
+7. Getting Started
+==================
+
+Right now there is no installation script. Just load the module with
+command:
+
+ insmod iscsi_if.ko
+ insmod iscsi_tcp.ko
+
+after that start iSCSI daemon process:
+
+ ./iscsid
+
+or alternatively, start it with debug enabled and with output
+redirected to the current console:
+
+ ./iscsid -d8 -f &
+
+and use configuration utility to add/remove/update Discovery records,
+iSCSI Node records or monitor active iSCSI sessions:
+
+ ./iscsiadm
+
+
+To login:
+
+ ./iscsiadm -m node --record <node rec> --login
+
+where <node rec> is the record of a discovered or manually
+added iSCSI Target Node (for iscsiadm usage examples see
+previous sections).
+
+
+8. TBD
+======
+
+To be completed:
+
+ - Kernel tracing and Troubleshooting
+ - Immediate and not-so-immediate plans
+ - Useful scripts
+ - White paper on Open-iSCSI design
