Hello dear all,

I have this issues when i'm trying to connect this to iSCSI initiators (sea-svr1 & sea-svr2) to my target server (sea-dc1).

First of all, i had installed Failover clustering into my two initiators, then installed the FS-ISCSITarget-server role to sea-dc1 and connect the two initiators to them.

Until here, everything has worked, but when i trying to connect sea-svr1 & sea-svr2 to the iSCSI target using this powershell cmdlet : "Connect-iSCSITarget -NodeAddress iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:sea-dc1-iSCSI-L03-target" i receive the error codes shown in this image.

Does anyone helps me ?

    Hi Simon ETOUNDI,

    Thank you for posting in the Q&A forum.

    Please run Get-IscsiTarget on the iSCSI initiator servers and see if it gets your iSCSI target. If not, run Update-IscsiTarget to refresh the information about iSCSI targets and then try Get-IscsiTarget again.

    Additionally, run Get-IscsiServerTarget on the iSCSI target server and make sure your iSCSI target is listed.

    Best Regards,

    Ian Xue

    Hey,

    Have you create iSCSI target on your target server? You need to create iSCSI target before connecting to the server/portal. https://computingforgeeks.com/install-and-configure-iscsi-target-on-windows-server/

    If the target was created, you can try discovering targets via IP for troubleshooting. Might help:

    As another option, you can use StarWind VSAN to create iSCSI target and connect it to your hosts.
