Updated iSCSI target on ReadyNAS
A few days ago Stefan Rubner released a new version 1.4.18 of the iSCSI target for ReadyNAS Duo/NV/NV+, and I used a bit of time to take it for a spin, last night. (Here's what changed.)
As with his previous versions, it works right out of the box, er, in the box — whatever, and my targets where immediately visible both from Linux' iSCSI initiator, as fom a Xen Server:
You can get it here, and while you're uploading to your device, take the time to review the installation instructions.
Thanks, Stefan — great work!
(PS: how's my port of Bacula coming along? hint, hint 
)
Slowly, for I have to make my living first and then do the fun parts of life. Because if it weren't for fun and I'd have to live from making ReadyNAS addons, I'd have died a long time ago from starvation
Having said that I'd like to know what parts of Bacula you'd actually need on the NAS and what you'd think would be a good layout. The thing is that I just don't have the time to do a web gui or similar niceties. So if you're fine with just the toolset and nothing else (as with the iSCSI target), well, that could be ready over the weekend.
Oh, no — no Gui!
The Storage Daemon (SD) would have to be there, of course, and it would be nice if the Director ran on the NV as well. I'd imagine that's most important to people: they could use a client (e.g. bconsole) on a host to control the Director/SD on the NV.
