iSCSI

This allows for the user to use the LG Network Storage Blue-ray/DVD drive as a CD drive. The LG Network Storage iSCSI service allows multiple users’ log-in and usage.

[iSCSI Initiator Installation]

In order to use the iSCSI, the Initiator program must be installed in the computer

A. Initiator Installation on a Windows PC

For Windows XP, download the installation program from the below Microsoft website

☞ Website

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=12cb3c1a-15d6-4585-b385-befd1319f825&displaylang=en

For Windows Vista, the operating system already includes a program and no additional installation is required.

B. Initiator Installation on a Linux PC

For Linux, the Initiator may be installed automatically from the website.

For ubuntu Linux, enter

$ sudo apt-get install open-iscsi

and for fedora, enter

$ yum install open-iscsi

to automatically install the Initiator.

C. Initiator Installation on a Mac

Install the globalsan iSCSI initiator. This can be downloaded from the “studio network solutions” homepage.

[Server Synchronization]

On the webpage, click “Enable” and then click “Apply”. Once the iSCSI is activated, certain functions such as web burning will be limited.

[iSCSI Connection]

A. Connection on a Windows PC

① Activate the iSCSI initiator. For Windows Vista, go to “Control panel → iSCSI Initiator” and activate the Initiator. For Windows XP, go to the Start menu and select iSCSI Initiator from the program list. If a mandatory certification (CHAP) procedure has been set up in the web setting, enter the required information under the General tab by pressing the Secret button.

② Find the iSCSI target (LG-NAS). Click on the Discover tap on the top of the iSCSI Initiator program. Then click the “Add” button on the bottom. Then a new window to Add Target Portal (picture below) should appear. Enter the target (LG Network Storage) IP address.

If a mandatory certification (CHAP) procedure has been set up in the web setting, enter the required information by pressing the Advanced button in the above window.

③ Log in. Go to the Targets tab on the cop of the iSCSI Initiator program. If all of the above procedures have been followed properly, the iSCSI Initiator will find and list the information for the target (LG-NAS). Select the relevant target name and press the “Log On . . .” and click “OK” from the pop-up window.

④ Check that the target has been connected as follows. Target can be checked by going to Device administrator → DVD/CD-ROM drive.

⑤ NAS built-in ODD can be accessed by using tools such as CyberLink Power2Go.

⑥ Log out when done. Go to the Targets tab on the top of the iSCSI Initiator program. Then click on the Details button on the bottom.

Select the relevant Target Name and click “Log Off. . . “

※ Due to compatibility issues between iSCSI Initiator and Windows Vista, the Windows Vista built-in ODD record functions, mastered or live file system, may not be available.

B. Connection on a Linux PC

① Activate the iSCSI initiator. $ /etc/init.d/open-iscsi start

② Find the iSCSI target. If the LG NAS (target)’s IP address is 192.168.10.2, the target is:

$ iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.10.2

Once target is found, execute the above command, which will display the target name. The following is an example:

$ 192.168.10.2:3260,1 iqn.2009-01.com.lge:LG-NAS.123456

③ Log in. Log-in command for the above target name is: $ iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2009-01.com.lge: LG-NAS.123456 --portal 192.168.10.2:3260 --login

④ Confirm the target connection using the below command. $ cdrecord -scanbus

⑤ ODD tools such as cdrecord can be used to utilize the NAS built-in ODD.

① Log out when done. Use the following command:

$ iscsiadm --mode node --targetname iqn.2009-01.com.lge: LG-NAS.123456 --portal 192.168.10.2:3260 –logout

[Connection for CHAP certification]

① Open the open-iscsi set-up file “/etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf”and set up the CHAP certification. Follow the below instructions. (The CHAP certificate password must match the password set up for the iSCSI service on the LG Network Storage webpage.)

discovery.sendtargets.auth.authmethod = CHAP discovery.sendtargets.auth.username = inAdmin discovery.sendtargets.auth.password = password set up (Target Secret)

node.session.auth.authmethod = CHAP node.session.auth.username = outAdmin node.session.auth.password = password set up (Initiator Secret)

② Activate open-iscsi. $ /etc/init.d/open-iscsi start If the open-iscsi was already activated, restart. $ /etc/init.d/open-iscsi restart

③ The rest of the procedures are the same as for [Connection to a Linux PC].

C. Connection on a Mac

① Activate iSCSI initiator. Go to System Preferences -> globalSAN iSCSIㄴ

② Find the iSCSI target. If the IP address is 192.168.10.2, see below. Go to globalSAN iSCSI -> Portals and press “+” and enter 192.168.10.2 and press “OK”.

If a mandatory certification (CHAP) procedure has been set up in the web setting, enter the required information by pressing the Advanced button in the above window.

③ Log in. Go to globalSAN iSCSI -> Targets, select the relevant target name and click “Log On. . . .” and then “Connect” on the pop-up window.

④ Confirm that the target is connected as follows. Go to Utilities -> System Profiler and check that “iSCSI” appears under “Disc Burning” interconnect.

Tools such as Disc Utility/Finder can be used to utilize the NAS built-in ODD.

⑤ Log out when done. Go to globalSAN iSCSI -> Targets, select the relevant target name and click “Log Off. . . .” and then “Disconnect” on the pop-up window.

* Because the LG Network Storage Blue-ray drive network connection allows any logged-in user to use the program, it is important that other users are not interrupted. For example, in the case that other users are burning data using the Blue-ray drive, it is recommended to avoid commands that may interfere with the work, such as “open tray”. In addition, if data writing/reading on the LG Network Storage is in progress through the network drive connection, there may be substantial data transfers within the network and cause difficulty in data transfers through the iSCSI, resulting in slower and limited writing/reading speed per disk.
