![]() ![]() the server complains that there was a disconnet on the 20th 3:36am. It automatically logs out the iscsi user after some time and the re-login from the Globalsan app sometimes takes too long, so that OSX detects a hard disconnect. But I do still get disconnecting errors on my server, because of some weird behavior of the Qnap. I did not get a GLO warning from the Globalsan software yet, which is a good sign. And I did re-enable the HD sleep function in the Qnap box. I did reinstall the iscsi luns using instant alloction (witch is block access I think). If so, is there a way to prevent the Qnap from automatically logging out after some idle time? Maybe the OS detects the login before the GlobalSAN app, so that I sometimes get the disconnection error message. Sometimes the time gap is short (see yourself in the log), sometimes it takes longer. If the Qnap logs out after a while for some reason, probably the GlobalSAN logs back in after a short time. Are these logouts/logins initiated by the Qnap? Why is that? The GlobalSAN support says that they never logout the device from their software. Strangely the targets logout and back in a few times every day. I started the iSCSI logging on the Qnap box and I get inormation only (no errors). Is anybody else using GlobalSAN with a Qnap box? If so are there any problems? They asked for the full price for an update so I went with GlobalSAN which is way cheaper. I never had any issues with that combination. They say it's not related to GlobalSAN but to the QNAP box.īefore I updated my Mac Mini it ran under 10.9 with the Xtend SAN software. So I created a ticket with SNS support and they tried to find the error. Sometimes I get an error window telling me that either files or backup was not disconnected properly. I created 2 targets (backup and files), no ACLs.Ĭonnection usually works fine. The target is a QNAP TS-659 with FW 4.2.6. Latest GlobalSAN iSCSI initiator is installed (5.3.1.555). There will be a iSCSI target icon on the desktop and the target can now be used as an external drive on your Mac.I have a Mac Mini server running under Sierra. Note that all of the data on the target will be erased.Įnter the drive name and select the format. Right-click on the iSCSI target under “External” and select “Erase…”. If the iSCSI target is not readable by the Mac, a dialog box will prompt the user to initialize the iSCSI target.įollow the steps below to initialize the iSCSI target: The iSCSI connection will now appear as “Connected” in the left list box. Select the connection for the iSCSI target in the right list box. Select “Challenge Handshake Auchentication (CHAP)” to enter name and secret fields. Optional: If CHAP authentication is used, select “Authentication”. Select “Always send “Session Type” when connecting”, then select “Done”. Select an iSCSI Target in the left list box, then select “iSCSI Options”. Select “+” > “Portal/Group”.Įnter the IP address or domain name of the NAS. Run “globalSAN and Xtarget” in "System Preferences".Ĭlick lock icon to unlock and allow for changes.
