This only happened a few times before we found that the money we saved not buying a real https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/279625-openfiler-after-installation NAS device was quickly wasted on the time we spent having to reconfigure Openfiler. 1 Pure Capsaicin OP Helpful Post Scott Alan Miller Dec 5, 2012 at 8:37 UTC Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider. We don't recommend OpenFiler because you risk finding that the default (included) iSCSI stack lacks support for SCSI-3 reservations and can cause your data to become corrupted (especially in an environment like virtualization) and to fix this you need to buy a one thousand euro iSCSI replacement module. Likely you would not realize this until after your data is corrupted, however. Use any Linux distro or any BSD distro. Far, far better.  0 Sonora OP rdineshkumar.phl Dec 6, 2012 at 4:58 UTC Thanks for the reply. Okay, i will try some other linux distro most probably ubuntu 12.04 and install kernel-server & nfs-common. But still i have to know the reason why this is not showing any options in openfiler other than QUOTA. is there something i can do experiments to bringup the openfiler?  Thanks & regards, Dinesh. 0 Pure Capsaicin OP Scott Alan Miller Dec 6, 2012 at 5:20 UTC Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provide

I however was determined to get something up and running for my ESX lab so that I can play around with some of ESX's more powerful, and interesting, features such as DRS, HA and VMotion. As with most of you money is a serious consideration so as I am not in a position to implement a fibre attached SAN solution - though this would be nice. The next best option is iSCSI. I am running both VMware ESX 3.5 and ESXi 3.5 in my lab and both provide iSCSI functionality by default to connect through to an iSCSI target. There are a handful of good free (free is always good 🙂 ) iSCSI software that can be downloaded. Some are standalone installs, others come in the form of virtual appliances and some both. Here is a list of those that I know of (there will no doubt be many more): OpenFiler Free NAS Xtravirt EMC Celera (VM) - log into the EMC portal and search for ‘Celerra Simulator'. I decided to give OpenFiler a go - as I'd heard good things about the latest release, v2.3. Here’s a link to a really good document on the OpenFiler site that details the underlying architecture. The download link to OpenFiler can be found here. As you can see there are many different downloads available. I decided to install it on old Shuttle XPC PC I had lying about. This server has 1GB of memory, Single AMD64 2GHz CPU and a single Gigabit NIC all of which are more than adequate for running OpenFil
