When setting
up systems equipped with Broadcom Ethernet NICs to be used as HPC
base or compute nodes with iSCSI storage, you might find that the
Broadcom card does not accept the IQN string set for it by the HPC
server. This failure will cause login failures when the node attempts
to boot from its iSCSI volume, because the HPC head node configures
the iSCSI boot volumes with IQN-based ACLs.
To resolve
this issue, change the BIOS setting on the Broadcom card and use a
template string in the HPC settings when you configure the node template,
as shown in the following procedure:
Start the HPC iSCSI
Settings App from the Start Menu, click Start → All Programs → EqualLogic → HPC iSCSI Provider
Settings.
Click Create new volumes with open
ACLs.
This option allows any initiator to log in to the
volume.
