Configuring iSCSI Offload with QConvergeConsole: QLogic
QME8242 Mezzanine Card User's Guide
The iSCSI offload feature provides full iSCSI offloads that include header and data digest, receive Protocol Data Unit (PDU)
parsing, and direct data placement. You can configure iSCSI offload parameters with the following utilities:
QConvergeConsole GUI: graphical user interface
QConvergeConsole CLI: interactive mode (menu driven) and non-interactive mode (command-line driven)
NOTE: Information on installing and starting the GUI version of
QConvergeConsole User's Guide. All procedural information for that utility is covered in the online help system.
For the interactive mode of the QConvergeConsole CLI, refer to the QConvergeConsole CLI User's Guide. For the non-
interactive mode of the QConvergeConsole CLI, refer to the procedures in this section to display and modify the following:
Adapter-Level iSCSI Parameters
Port-Level iSCSI Parameters
Summary of Target Sessions
Target Session-Level iSCSI Negotiated Parameters
Target Session-Level Persistent iSCSI Parameters
NOTE: The current release does not support iSCSI IPv6. Support is expected in a future release.
Adapter-Level iSCSI Parameters
This section shows the commands used to display and to modify adapter-level iSCSI parameters.
Displaying Adapter-Level iSCSI Parameters
To view the adapter configured settings, issue the -ch command. The positional parameter, [hba_port_inst], is optional. If an
hba_port_inst is specified, information for only that adapter is shown. If the hba_port_inst is not specified, information for all
adapters in the system is listed.
Command line options:
-ch [hba_port_inst]
Example:
$qaucli -pr iscsi -ch
Or:
$qaucli -iscsi -ch
*** hba instance: 0
HBA_Alias
*** hba instance: 1
HBA_Alias
Modifying Adapter-Level iSCSI Parameters
Use the -nh command to set the adapter-level parameters for single- or multi-port adapters. The positional parameter
becomes <hba_port_inst> and a series of one or more parameter name-value pairs. To check the list of parameters, use the
-ch option.
Command line options:
-nh <hba_port_inst> <config_name|config_alias> <value> [<config_name|config_alias> <value>]
