How to modify the iSCSI initiator ID in Linux

September 15, 2020 at 8:47 am Leave a comment

When you deploy Linux VM’s using a Template (in ESXi) ,you may come across a situation , where the iSCI initiator ID on these VM’s will be identical. To resolve this issue we need to modify the iscsi initiator ID’s.

In case if you have logged in to the iscsi session already you need to log out first.

#iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -p iscsiserver-ip -u

Thereafter:

backup the file initiatorname.iscsi
#cp /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi.bak

#echo “InitiatorName=`/sbin/iscsi-iname`” > /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi

You can login again to the iscsi session
#iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -p iscsiserver-ip -l
