# svcadm –v enable iscsi_initiator

svc:/network/iscsi_initiator:default enabled

2. Verify the iSCSI services are running:

# svcs –a | grep iscsi_initiator

Online 10:10:28 svc: /network/iscsi_initiator:default

How to configure the iSCSI software initiator using the D2Dsetup script

Use the D2Dsetup script provided with the installation media to configure the iSCSI software initiator

automatically. You must provide the IP address as a parameter to the script.

# D2Dsetup <IP_address>

If you wish to configure CHAP authentication, you should also provide the user name and password

for the initiator and the target, if required.

# D2Dsetup <Initiator_CHAP_Username> <Initiator_CHAP_Password>

<Target_CHAP_Username> <Target_CHAP_Password> <IP_address>
