[Stgt-devel] [RFC] target configuration tool

[Tomasz Chmielewski]

I would like to present a tgtd iSCSI target configuration tool.

An example config file for configuring targets can look like below:


include /etc/tgt/temp/*.conf

<target iqn.2007-04.com.example:san.monitoring>
    backing-store /dev/san/monitoring

    # if no "incominguser" is specified, it is not used
    incominguser backup secretpass12

    # defaults to ALL if no "initiator-address" is specified
    initiator-address 192.168.1.2
</target>

<target iqn.2007-02.com.example:san.xen1>
    backing-store /dev/san/xen1-disk1 # LUN1
    backing-store /dev/san/xen1-disk2 # LUN2
    backing-store /dev/san/xen1-disk2 # LUN3

    initiator-address 192.168.1.2     # Allowed IP
    initiator-address 192.168.5.6     # Allowed IP

    incominguser user1 secretpass12
    incominguser user2 secretpass23

    outgoinguser userA secretpassA
</target>

<target iqn.2007-02.com.example:san.xen2>
    backing-store /dev/san/xen2
</target>



You can find more info on http://wpkg.org/TGT-admin and download the 
source code by pointing wget to http://wpkg.org/tgt-admin


Other features I'd like to implement are:

* change target configuration if the target is already online and its 
config was changed
* add a proper /etc/init.d/tgt script
* dumping current tgtd configuration
* support other target types (not only iSCSI) - unfortunately, I don't 
have any other hardware
