Help to make iSER working

[Ben RUBSON]

Hello,

I have some difficulties to make iSER (FreeBSD 11 BETA3) working.



### My configuration :

2 servers with Mellanox ConnectX-3 NICs.



### What I did :

I rebuilt kernel adding the following to GENERIC :
options OFED
device mlxen
options COMPAT_LINUXKPI

I built iser :
cd /usr/src/sys/modules/iser/ ; make ; make install ; kldload iser
(I saw later-on that I could have used "device iser" in kernel configuration)

My /etc/ctl.conf :
portal-group pg0 {
  discovery-auth-group no-authentication
  listen 192.168.2.2
  offload iser
}
target iqn.2012-06.com.test:target1 {
  auth-group no-authentication
  portal-group pg0
  alias my-iser-disk
  lun 0 {
    path /dev/da8
  }
}



### Error :

As soon as I do the following :
iscsictl -A -r -t iqn.2012-06.com.test:target1 -p 192.168.2.2
I get this error :
iscsid[1187]: 192.168.2.2 (iqn.2012-06.com.test:target1): failed to connect to 192.168.2.2 using ICL kernel proxy: ISCSIDCONNECT: Invalid argument
iscsid[655]: child process 1187 terminated with exit status 1

"sysctl hw.mlxen1.stat.tx_packets" on initiator shows that no packet is sent at all when trying to connect.

Did I miss something ?

Many thanks !

Ben
