Available Meta states

• iscsi
• iscsi.target
• iscsi.target.clean
• iscsi.initiator
• iscsi.initiator.clean
• iscsi.isns
• iscsi.isns.clean

iscsi

Meta-state (This is a state that includes other states).

Deploy iSNS, iSCSI initiator, and iSCSI target packages, manage configuration files and then starts the associated iscsi services.

iscsi.target

Install and configure the iSCSI Target service. Supported vendor implementations include-

• /etc/ctl.conf for ctld(8) on FreeBSD
• /etc/target/saveconfig.json` for ``LIO on GNU/Linux
• /etc/targets.conf for tgt(8) on GNU/Linux
• /etc/ietd.conf for ietd(8)` on GNU/Linux

The defaults targets are-

• ctld on FreeBSD
• LIO on CentOS, OpenSUSE, Arch
• tgt on Debian
• Unsupported on Amazon (no packages available)

The default choice is modifable via the iscsi.target.provider pillar value. New providers can be introduced via pull request.

iscsi.target.clean

Meta-state (This is a state that includes other states).

this state will undo everything performed in the iscsi.target meta-state in reverse order, i.e. stops the service, removes the configuration files and then uninstalls the package.

iscsi.initiator

Install and configure the iSCSI initiator service-

• /etc/iscsi.conf for FreeBSD
• /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf or ~/.iscsid.conf for Open iSCSI on GNU/Linux

iscsi.initiator.clean

Meta-state (This is a state that includes other states).

this state will undo everything performed in the iscsi.initiator meta-state in reverse order, i.e. stops the service, removes the configuration files and then uninstalls the package.

iscsi.isns

Install and configure iSCSI name service.

iscsi.isns.clean

Meta-state (This is a state that includes other states).

this state will undo everything performed in the iscsi.isns meta-state in reverse order, i.e. stops the service, removes the configuration files and then uninstalls the package.

Testing

Linux testing is done with kitchen-salt.

Requirements

• Ruby
• Docker

$ gem install bundler
$ bundle install
$ bin/kitchen test [platform]

Where [platform] is the platform name defined in kitchen.yml, e.g. debian-9-2019-2-py3.

bin/kitchen converge

Creates the docker instance and runs the iscsi main state, ready for testing.

bin/kitchen verify

Runs the inspec tests on the actual instance.

bin/kitchen destroy

Removes the docker instance.

bin/kitchen test

Runs all of the stages above in one go: i.e. destroy + converge + verify + destroy.

bin/kitchen login

Gives you SSH access to the instance for manual testing.
