iSCSI not reconnecting - OS 6.6.1
I'm having a similar issue to both of these users who seemed to never get a resolution: https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-in-Business/iSCSi-won-t-reconnect/td-p/971430 https://community.net...
This has been fixed in 6.7.0, which is available as a public beta release.
On 6.6.1, network reconnections are not noticed if you are using static IPs. So if you prefer a temporary workaround instead of updating to 6.7.0 beta, you can switch your ReadyNAS to use DHCP instead of static IPs.
Good to hear, I will wait for the final release I think. Any estimate on when it might be available?
Just to be clear for your work-around, DHCP needs to be set on the network interfaces of the Netgear NAS, not the initiating clients?
There's no exact date yet, but I expect 6.7.0 to be available within the next month.
The ReadyNAS must be using DHCP to work around this. The initiators' network configuration doesn't matter in this case.
Well I found out the hard way tonight that this issue was absolutely not fixed in 6.7.0 (or 6.7.4 for that matter).
We had to restart our core switch over a configuration change, and as soon as we did all of our iSCSI devices started failing to log into the LUNs on the NAS... The same 'fix' as before worked, I went into the group for the LUNs and switched the Initiators option from 'Selected' to 'All', then back to 'Selected' and bam, all of the iSCSI devices re-connected immediately.
These devices simply cannot be used for iSCSI in this state... is there an actual fix planned soon??
