Generating an iSCSI qualified name

Edit online

A unique iSCSI qualified name (IQN) can be generated by the utility iscsi-iname and it is generated every time you invoke iscsi-iname.

This IQN can be used to configure iSCSI initiator and the iSCSI target.

Note: The IQN should be the same at both the iSCSI initiator and iSCSI target.
Example:
# iscsi-iname
