There are a number of common iSCSI-related error messages that might display on your storage system console.
The following table contains the most common error messages, and instructions for resolving them.
Message | Explanation | What to do |
---|---|---|
ISCSI: network interface identifier disabled for use; incoming connection discarded | The iSCSI service is not enabled on the interface. | You can use the iscsi interface enable command to enable the iSCSI service on the interface. For example: iscsi interface enable e9b |
ISCSI: Authentication failed for initiator nodename | CHAP is not configured correctly for the specified initiator. | Check CHAP settings.
|
ifconfig: interface cannot be configured: Address does not match any partner interface. or Cluster monitor: takeover during ifconfig_2 failed; takeover continuing... | A single-mode interface group can be a partner interface to a standalone, physical interface on a cluster partner. However, the partner statement in the ifconfig command must use the name of the partner interface, not the partner's IP address. If the IP address of the partner's physical interface is used, the interface is not successfully taken over by the storage system's interface group. |
