用命令行配置 iSCSI Target

The Ceph iSCSI gateway is the iSCSI target node and also a Ceph client node. The Ceph iSCSI gateway can be a standalone node or be colocated on a Ceph Object Store Disk (OSD) node. Completing the following steps will install, and configure the Ceph iSCSI gateway for basic operation.

必备条件:

  • A running Ceph Luminous or later storage cluster

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux/CentOS 7.5 (or newer); Linux kernel v4.16 (or newer)

  • The following packages must be installed from your Linux distribution’s software repository:

    • targetcli-2.1.fb47 or newer package

    • python-rtslib-2.1.fb68 or newer package

    • tcmu-runner-1.4.0 or newer package

    • ceph-iscsi-3.2 or newer package

    Important

    If previous versions of these packages exist, then they must be removed first before installing the newer versions.

Do the following steps on the Ceph iSCSI gateway node before proceeding to the Installing section:

  1. If the Ceph iSCSI gateway is not colocated on an OSD node, then copy the Ceph configuration files, located in /etc/ceph/, from a running Ceph node in the storage cluster to the iSCSI Gateway node. The Ceph configuration files must exist on the iSCSI gateway node under /etc/ceph/.

  2. Install and configure the Ceph Command-line Interface

  3. If needed, open TCP ports 3260 and 5000 on the firewall.

    Note

    Access to port 5000 should be restricted to a trusted internal network or only the individual hosts where gwcli is used or ceph-mgr daemons are running.

  4. Create a new or use an existing RADOS Block Device (RBD).

安装:

If you are using the upstream ceph-iscsi package follow the manual install instructions.

For rpm based instructions execute the following commands:

  1. As root, on all iSCSI gateway nodes, install the ceph-iscsi package:

    # yum install ceph-iscsi
    
  2. As root, on all iSCSI gateway nodes, install the tcmu-runner package:

    # yum install tcmu-runner
    

配置得跑起来:

  1. gwcli requires a pool with the name rbd, so it can store metadata like the iSCSI configuration. To check if this pool has been created run:

    # ceph osd lspools
    

    If it does not exist instructions for creating pools can be found on the RADOS pool operations page.

  2. As root, on a iSCSI gateway node, create a file named iscsi-gateway.cfg in the /etc/ceph/ directory:

    # touch /etc/ceph/iscsi-gateway.cfg
    
    1. Edit the iscsi-gateway.cfg file and add the following lines:

      [config]
      # Name of the Ceph storage cluster. A suitable Ceph configuration file allowing
      # access to the Ceph storage cluster from the gateway node is required, if not
      # colocated on an OSD node.
      cluster_name = ceph
      
      # Place a copy of the ceph cluster's admin keyring in the gateway's /etc/ceph
      # drectory and reference the filename here
      gateway_keyring = ceph.client.admin.keyring
      
      
      # API settings.
      # The API supports a number of options that allow you to tailor it to your
      # local environment. If you want to run the API under https, you will need to
      # create cert/key files that are compatible for each iSCSI gateway node, that is
      # not locked to a specific node. SSL cert and key files *must* be called
      # 'iscsi-gateway.crt' and 'iscsi-gateway.key' and placed in the '/etc/ceph/' directory
      # on *each* gateway node. With the SSL files in place, you can use 'api_secure = true'
      # to switch to https mode.
      
      # To support the API, the bear minimum settings are:
      api_secure = false
      
      # Additional API configuration options are as follows, defaults shown.
      # api_user = admin
      # api_password = admin
      # api_port = 5001
      # trusted_ip_list = 192.168.0.10,192.168.0.11
      

      Note

      trusted_ip_list is a list of IP addresses on each iscsi gateway that will be used for management operations like target creation, lun exporting, etc. The IP can be the same that will be used for iSCSI data, like READ/WRITE commands to/from the RBD image, but using separate IPs is recommended.

      Important

      The iscsi-gateway.cfg file must be identical on all iSCSI gateway nodes.

    2. As root, copy the iscsi-gateway.cfg file to all iSCSI gateway nodes.

  3. As root, on all iSCSI gateway nodes, enable and start the API service:

    # systemctl daemon-reload
    # systemctl enable rbd-target-api
    # systemctl start rbd-target-api
    

后续配置:

gwcli will create and configure the iSCSI target and RBD images and copy the configuration across the gateways setup in the last section. Lower level tools, like targetcli and rbd, can be used to query the local configuration, but should not be used to modify it. This next section will demonstrate how to create a iSCSI target and export a RBD image as LUN 0.

  1. As root, on a iSCSI gateway node, start the iSCSI gateway command-line interface:

    # gwcli
    
  2. Go to iscsi-targets and create a target with the name iqn.2003-01.com.redhat.iscsi-gw:iscsi-igw:

    > /> cd /iscsi-target
    > /iscsi-target>  create iqn.2003-01.com.redhat.iscsi-gw:iscsi-igw
    
  3. Create the iSCSI gateways. The IPs used below are the ones that will be used for iSCSI data like READ and WRITE commands. They can be the same IPs used for management operations listed in trusted_ip_list, but it is recommended that different IPs are used.

    > /iscsi-target> cd iqn.2003-01.com.redhat.iscsi-gw:iscsi-igw/gateways
    > /iscsi-target...-igw/gateways>  create ceph-gw-1 10.172.19.21
    > /iscsi-target...-igw/gateways>  create ceph-gw-2 10.172.19.22
    

    If not using RHEL/CentOS or using an upstream or ceph-iscsi-test kernel, the skipchecks=true argument must be used. This will avoid the Red Hat kernel and rpm checks:

    > /iscsi-target> cd iqn.2003-01.com.redhat.iscsi-gw:iscsi-igw/gateways
    > /iscsi-target...-igw/gateways>  create ceph-gw-1 10.172.19.21 skipchecks=true
    > /iscsi-target...-igw/gateways>  create ceph-gw-2 10.172.19.22 skipchecks=true
    
  4. Add a RBD image with the name disk_1 in the pool rbd:

    > /iscsi-target...-igw/gateways> cd /disks
    > /disks> create pool=rbd image=disk_1 size=90G
    
  5. Create a client with the initiator name iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:rh7-client:

    > /disks> cd /iscsi-target/iqn.2003-01.com.redhat.iscsi-gw:iscsi-igw/hosts
    > /iscsi-target...eph-igw/hosts>  create iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:rh7-client
    
  6. Set the client’s CHAP username to myiscsiusername and password to myiscsipassword:

    > /iscsi-target...at:rh7-client>  auth username=myiscsiusername password=myiscsipassword
    

    Warning

    CHAP must always be configured. Without CHAP, the target will reject any login requests.

  7. Add the disk to the client:

    > /iscsi-target...at:rh7-client> disk add rbd/disk_1
    

The next step is to configure the iSCSI initiators.
