2.4 Transferring Acronis Storage iSCSI Targets
Between Acronis Storage Nodes
You can transfer stopped iSCSI targets between Acronis Storage Nodes. After the transfer, you will be able
to start and manage the iSCSI target on the destination Node. On the source Node, you will only be able to
delete the transferred target with the --force option (for more details, see Deleting Acronis Storage iSCSI Targets
on page 9).
To transfer an iSCSI target, do the following:
1. Make sure the target is stopped. For more details, see Stopping Acronis Storage iSCSI Targets on page 8.
2. Unregister the target on its current Node with the vstorage-iscsi unregister command. For example:
# vstorage-iscsi unregister -t iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1
3. Register the target on the new Node with the vstorage-iscsi register command. For example:
# vstorage-iscsi register -t iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1
2.5 Stopping Acronis Storage iSCSI Targets
To stop a Acronis Storage iSCSI target to which no initiators are connected, use the vstorage-iscsi stop command.
For example, for the target iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1:
# vstorage-iscsi stop -t iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1
If one or more iSCSI initiators are still connected to the target, you will be informed as follows:
# vstorage-iscsi stop -t iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1
initiators still connected
Initiator: iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:c678b9f6f0 (192.168.30.100)
Unable stop target iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1
In this case, disconnect the iSCSI initiator according to the product manual and run the vstorage-iscsi stop com-
mand again.
To forcibly stop a target to which one or more initiators are still connected, add the -f option to the command
above. For example:
