==== iSCSI Enterprise Target (IET) ==== IET (http://iscsitarget.sourceforge.net/) is a iSCSI target with good performance, easy config and small footprint. It lives completely in userland so the install and basic setup is trivial. == Installing IET on Gentoo == adrenaline ~ # emerge iscsitarget == Installing IET on Ubuntu 8.10 == root@novBackup:~# apt-get install iscsitarget == Configuration of IET == Edit /etc/ietd.conf and add the following: Target iqn.2001-04.com.example:myVolumeName Lun 0 Path=/dev/sdX,Type=fileio Where **Path** can be any block device (including regular block devices like hdX and sdX and virtual block devices like LVM and Software RAID devices) or regular files. If you use a regular file you need to make it as big as you want the target device to be. This will get you a 1 GB file: root@novBackup:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/myfile bs=1024 count=1000000 Setup complete!
