Resize of iscsi device is pretty simple and the modification can be seen on linux client without reboot even.
Adding the iscsi disk can be done like in the example below:
root@pluto:~# iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.69.1
192.168.69.1:3260,1 iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups
192.168.69.1:3260,1 iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:swap-pluto
[color=green]192.168.69.1:3260,1 iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups-file[/color]
root@pluto:~# iscsiadm -m node --login
Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups-file, portal: 192.168.69.1,3260] (multiple)
Login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups-file, portal: 192.168.69.1,3260] successful.
With fdisk -l you can see the disk size and apparently it is kinda small:
root@pluto:~# fdisk -l /dev/sdd
Disk /dev/sdd: [color=red]367 MB[/color], 367001600 bytes
12 heads, 59 sectors/track, 1012 cylinders, total 716800 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 1048576 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Disk /dev/sdd doesn't contain a valid partition tabl
In this situation, you have to go back to storage machine (FreeNAS in my case) resize the iscsi device, and re-scan it on the linux client:
iscsiadm -m node --targetname iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups-file -RThe output should be as follows:
root@pluto:~# iscsiadm -m node --targetname iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups-file -R
Rescanning session [sid: 3, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.sun:backups-file, portal: 192.168.69.1,3260]
Now, if we do again the fdisk command, iscsi disk should have the new size:
root@pluto:~# fdisk -l /dev/sdd
Disk /dev/sdd: [color=green]375.8 GB[/color], 375809638400 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 45689 cylinders, total 734003200 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 1048576 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Disk /dev/sdd doesn't contain a valid partition table
How to resize ISCSI in multipath:
Here you may need to umount your filesystem(s) unless you have mirroring and you can take off the mirrors one after another.
1. The size of the disk was initially 100G:
root@pluto:~# multipath -ll
oglebkp (33000000019d54e80) dm-10 FreeBSD,iSCSI Disk
size=[color=red]100G[/color] features='1 queue_if_no_path' hwhandler='0' wp=rw
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=0 status=active
|- 4:0:0:0 sdf 8:80 active ready running
`- 5:0:0:0 sdg 8:96 active ready running
2. Disconnect your ISCSI disks:
root@pluto:~# iscsiadm -m node --targetname iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups -u
Logging out of session [sid: 3, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.69.104,3260]
Logging out of session [sid: 4, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.70.104,3260]
Logout of [sid: 3, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.69.104,3260] successful.
Logout of [sid: 4, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.70.104,3260] successful.
3. Go to your storage (FreeNAS in my case) and resize the ISCSI devices:
4. Reattach the ISCSI devices:
root@pluto:~# iscsiadm -m node --login -p 192.168.69.104
Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.69.104,3260] (multiple)
Login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.69.104,3260] successful.
root@pluto:~# iscsiadm -m node --login -p 192.168.70.104
Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.70.104,3260] (multiple)
Login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2014-07.ro.gz.ogle:backups, portal: 192.168.70.104,3260] successful.
Now you should see the new size on multipath command and fdisk of course:
root@pluto:~# multipath -ll
oglebkp (33000000019d54e80) dm-10 FreeBSD,iSCSI Disk
size=[color=green]200G[/color] features='1 queue_if_no_path' hwhandler='0' wp=rw
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=0 status=active
|- 21:0:0:0 sdg 8:96 active ready running
`- 20:0:0:0 sdf 8:80 active ready running
root@pluto:~# fdisk -l /dev/mapper/oglebkp
Disk /dev/mapper/oglebkp: [color=green]214.7 GB[/color], 214748364800 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 26108 cylinders, total 419430400 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 1048576 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/mapper/oglebkp1 63 209715199 104857568+ a5 FreeBSD
If you do not see the new size, you may have to rescan your multipath device:
root@pluto:~# multipathd -k'resize map oglebkp'
ok
