Hi,

I'm trying to connect an vmware esxi hosts to an stgt target.

I have this little config:

<target iqn.2014-04.rbdstore.example.com:loop>

    driver iscsi
    backing-store /var/tgt/store1
    scsi_id 00010005

</target>

tgt-admin -s
Target 1: iqn.2014-04.rbdstore.example.com:loop

ls -l /var/tgt/store1
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 21474836480 Jun 16 16:15 /var/tgt/store1

The problem is that I get vmware error when I try to mount the datastore.

From vmkernel.log I see the following:

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

After troubleshooting, I found out that the problem was an MTU problem, so I got packet loss between the nodes.

Kind regards,

The config looks ok. Maybe you have an ip conflict or target conflict that the ESXi detects and offlines the connection
