The ISCSI_INFO view returns iSCSI configuration information for the system.
One row is returned for each iSCSI target that is configured.
If no iSCSI targets are configured, one default row is returned. The target configuration values
in that row are NULL except for the INITIATOR_NAME column. The INITIATOR_NAME column contains the
default initiator name generated by the system. This is useful when configuring the iSCSI target
system.
Authorization: The caller must have *IOSYSCFG special authority.
The following table describes the columns in the view. The system name is ISCSI_INFO. The schema
is QSYS2.

| Column Name |
System Column Name |
Data Type |
Description |
| TARGET_NAME |
TGT_NAME |
VARCHAR(223) Nullable
|
The iSCSI target name of the iSCSI target. |
| TARGET_HOST_NAME |
TGT_HOST |
VARCHAR(255) Nullable
|
The TCP/IP host name of the iSCSI target. |
| TARGET_PORT |
TGT_PORT |
INTEGER Nullable
|
TCP/IP target port being used for iSCSI connection. |
| INITIATOR_NAME |
INIT_NAME |
VARCHAR(223) |
The iSCSI initiator name associated with the iSCSI
target. |
| INITIATOR_CHAP_NAME |
INIT_CHAP |
VARCHAR(255) Nullable
|
The Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) name used
by the IBM i iSCSI initiator to authenticate with the iSCSI target. Contains the null value if
CHAP authentication is not in use.
|
| CHAP_KEYSTORE |
CHAP_KS |
VARCHAR(18) Nullable
|
The encrypted storage area used to store CHAP authentication data persistently.
- NONE AVAILABLE
- CHAP authentication data is stored as plaintext because encrypted storage is not available to
the partition.
- NONE
- CHAP authentication data is stored as plaintext in nonencrypted storage.
- PLATFORM
- CHAP authentication data is stored in encrypted storage provided by the platform hardware.
Contains the null value if CHAP authentication is not in use.
|
| RESOURCE_NAME |
RESOURCE |
VARCHAR(10) Nullable
|
Resource name of the iSCSI Virtual I/O Processor (IOP). |
| TARGET_STATUS |
TGT_STATUS |
VARCHAR(25) Nullable
|
Current status of the iSCSI target.
- ACTIVE
- Connection to the iSCSI target is active
- ACTIVE PENDING CHANGE
- Connection to iSCSI target is active. A change to the target configuration will take effect when
an IPL of the iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
- ACTIVE PENDING REMOVE
- Connection to iSCSI target is active. The connection to the target will end when an IPL of the
iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
- CONNECTING
- System is attempting to make a connection to the iSCSI target.
- CONNECTING PENDING CHANGE
- System is attempting to make initial connection to the iSCSI target. A change to the target
configuration will take effect when an IPL of the iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
- CONNECTING PENDING REMOVE
- System is attempting to make initial connection to the iSCSI target. Attempts to connect to the
target will end when an IPL of the iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
- FAILED
- The system failed to connect to the target. The administrator should check the configuration
values.
- FAILED PENDING CHANGE
- The system failed to connect to the target. A change to the target configuration will take
effect when an IPL of the iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
- FAILED PENDING REMOVE
- The system failed to connect to the target. Attempts to connect to the target will end when an
IPL of the iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
- PENDING ADD
- The target has been configured, but the system has not attempted a connection. The system will
attempt to connect to the target when the iSCSI Virtual IOP is completed.
