Openfiler Installation And Configuration Step By Step
modifications to partition /dev/mapper/isw_eahhagfiah_RAID1p1 -- Invalid argument. This means Linux won't know about any changes you made to /dev/mapper/isw_eahhagfiah_RAID1p1 until you reboot -- so you shouln't mount it or use it in any way before rebooting.

It can run with very minimal resource.Below http://www.vmwarebits.com/content/install-and-configure-openfiler-esxi-shared-storage-nfs-and-iscsi I will show how we can take the benefit of openfiler to make SAN/NAS storage for our VMware ESX host. There are two types of openfiler installation. You can click on the installation link to see all details on how to help 1.Text Based Installation 2.Graphical Installation N:B:-Make sure you how to have not partitioned all the disk space.Make the OS partition to small size and keep rest as free space which later we will use as iSCSI LUN. At the time of installation or post installation you have to configure static IP address and necessary DNS configuration. Once your installation is done, after reboot you will get a screen like below where it how to configure will give the URL where you can access opnefiler from browser. N:B:- Configure static IP address and necessary DNS configuration before doing anything Step-1:Now open the URL given at openfiler startup screen using any browser to login to its web interface. For first time it will give a security warning like the picture shown below. You just need to ignore the warning and proceed to the login page. You will get a login screen like given below. N:B:-Don’t login using the root user credentials what you have provided during openfiler installation. Default username:-openfiler Default Password:-password Once after successful login you will get a screen which will be containing all your openfiler server information Step-2:Go to volumes tab.If you are opening this for first time you will get a screen like below. You have to select create new volume group. Then you will get a screen like below. Step-3:Click on disk name (Here in my case its /dev/sdb) under Edit Disk which contains the free space we are going to use iSCSI storage. Now you will get a screen where you can make your physical vo
NFS and iSCSI published by Rob Bastiaansen on Thu, 11/28/2013 - 13:05 When you have created an ESXi environment and want to work with features such as vMotion and High Availability you will need shared storage in your environment. Openfiler is a good choice to setup a storage appliance to provide shared storage with NFS or iSCSI. In this article I will explain how to setup Openfiler. There is also an appliance available that you can download but the appliance is not always updated to the latest version and I had mixed results in the past with importing it into different environment. Therefor I have based the article on installation of the ISO-file you can download it at www.openfiler.com. I have used version 2.99 (openfileresa-2.99.1-x86_64-disc1.iso) To get started you need to create a virtual machine (in ESXi or Workstation), attach the ISO-file and power on. The OS type to choose is Other Linux 64 bit. The minimum disk requirement is 10GB so make sure to modify the hard disk size before you start the Openfiler installation. The full system requirements can be found here. The installation procedure is also described on the Openfiler-website. But I have made a short installation guide below with the most important steps highlighted. First install the operating system on a single hard disk and then after installation is ready add hard disks that will contain your NFS and iSCSI partitions. There is no need to power off the virtual machine to add the hard disks. You can add them while it's powered on in ESXi and Openfiler will also automatically detect the new disks. When you boot the virtual machine with the installation ISO you will see the image below. Press Enter to start the graphical installer. For the rest of the setup process I have only placed images in this article and added explanations for those parts that require it. Other steps such as selecting your keyboard or time zone are things you can figure out your
