Execute the following command as root:

yum install scsi-target-utils -y

Output is as follows:

[root@san1 ~]# yum install scsi-target-utils -y

[root@san1 ~]#

==================

As root execute the following commands:

Create a directory for the disks

mkdir /disks

and then create a set of 24 disk files each 2Gb in size

for i in 1 to 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

[root@san1 ~]#

Set the iscsi target demon to start automatically

chkconfig --level 345 tgtd on

Output is as:

[root@san1 ~]# chkconfig --level 345 tgtd on

[root@san1 ~]#

Edit the following file:

/etc/rc.d/rc.local

Add following to the end of this file:

#Stop firewall

service iptables stop

# Create a target

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op new --mode target --tid 1 -T iqm.mgmt.volumes-san

# Create LUNs within the target

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op new --mode logicalunit --tid 1 --lun $i -b /disks/disk$i.dat

done

# Expose target to all

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op bind --mode target --tid 1 -I ALL

After update the file looks like following:

[root@san1 ~]# cat /etc/rc.d/rc.local

#!/bin/sh

# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.

# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't

# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local

#Stop firewall

service iptables stop

# Create a target

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op new --mode target --tid 1 -T iqm.mgmt.volumes-san

# Create LUNs within the target

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op new --mode logicalunit --tid 1 --lun $i -b /disks/disk$i.dat

done

# Expose target to all

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op bind --mode target --tid 1 -I ALL

[root@san1 ~]#

Bounce the VM again with "reboot"

Verify target is ready and the LUNs are present:

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op show --mode target

You should see something like the following:

[root@san1 ~]# tgtadm --lld iscsi --op show --mode target

Target 1: iqm.mgmt.volumes-san

Now shutdown the machine using command “shutdown –h now”

On console of this machine do the following:

Click “Edit virtual machine settings” and on the following screen enter 256MB in front of “Memory for this virtual machine” and click ok.

and take its backup. Copy folder “san1” inder directory “C:\VM\rac_12c” in the same directory and I will name the backup folder as “san1_ready”, it is required only if you mess-up something during install and want to restore san1 machine.
