2.9. Managing LUN Snapshots

2.8.4 Listing CHAP Accounts and Their iSCSI Targets

To list existing CHAP accounts, use the vstorage-iscsi account-list command. For example:

# vstorage-iscsi account-list

user1

To list iSCSI targets assigned to a speciﬁc CHAP account, use the vstorage-iscsi account-list command with

the -u option. For example, to list iSCSI targets assigned to the CHAP account user1:

2.9 Managing LUN Snapshots

You can create and manage snapshots of speciﬁc LUNs. To create a snapshot of the entire target, you need

to create snapshots of each LUN within it.

2.9.1 Creating LUN Snapshots

To create a snapshot of a LUN in an iSCSI target, use the vstorage-iscsi snapshot-create command. For

example, for LUN 1 on target iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1:

# vstorage-iscsi snapshot-create -t iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1 -l 1

Snapshot a1f54314-bc06-40c6-a587-965feb9d85bb successfully created.

Note: To generate a UUID manually, use uuidgen.

2.9.2 Listing LUN Snapshots

To list snapshots for the speciﬁed LUN, use the vstorage-iscsi snapshot-list command. For example, for

LUN 1 on target iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:test1:

# vstorage-iscsi snapshot-list -t iqn.2014-04.com.vstorage:stor4 -l 1
