Se ha realizado en nuestro entorno de pruebas una VTL Open Source sobre FC. Su implementación está basada en los trabajos previos sobre mhVTL y SCST .
Partiendo del escenario descrito en los post SCST 2 y SCST 3, donde se compiló un kernel vanilla y se le añadió el software SCST junto con los drivers de QLogic en modo target, configurado para que ofreciera a la SAN un disco virtual (VDISK). Se añade al servidor el proyecto mhVTL emulando una librería de cintas modelo Sun Storagetek L700 con un drive SDLT600 de QUANTUM, encargándose el módulo SCST de ofrecerlas a través de la HBA operando en modo Target.
El procedimiento de su implementación es:
1.- Crear entorno previo SCST descrito en el post SCST 2.
2.- Instalar proyecto mhVTL
3.- Configurar mhVTL
4.- Configurar SCST para dar visibilidad a los elementos de mhVTL por fibra.
2.- Instalar proyecto mhVTL
La instalación es idéntica a la descrita en el artículo VTL Open Source sobre iSCSI. Brevemente, descarga de las fuentes mhvtl en formato tar.gz desde la web del proyecto y realiza el siguiente procedimiento de instalación:
# useradd vtl
# passwd vtl
# mkdir /opt/mhvtl
# chown -Rf vtl:vtl /opt/mhvtl
# mkdir /etc/mhvtl
# chown -Rf vtl:vtl /etc/mhvtl
# cd /root/mhvtl-0.18-4
# make distclean
# cd kernel
# make
# make install
# cd ../
# make
# make install
3.- Configurar mhVTL
Edición del fichero /etc/mhvtl/device.conf para definir la librería y el drive:
# cat /etc/mhvtl/device.conf
VERSION: 4# VPD page format:
# <page #> <Length> <x> <x+1>… <x+n># NOTE: The order of records is IMPORTANT…
# The 'Unit serial number:' should be last (except for VPD data)
# i.e.
# Order is : Vendor ID, Product ID, Product Rev and serial number finally
# Zero, one or more VPD entries.
#
# Each 'record' is sperated by one (or more) blank lines.
# Each 'record' starts at column 1Library: 2 CHANNEL: 0 TARGET: 0 LUN: 0
Vendor identification: STK

Definir el contenido de la librería en el fichero /etc/mhvtl/library_contents:
# cat /etc/mhvtl/library_contents # Define how many tape drives you want in the vtl.. # The 'XYZZY_...' is the serial number assigned to # this tape device. Drive 1: ZF7584364 # Place holder for the robotic arm. Not really used. Picker 1: # Media Access Port # (mailslots, Cartridge Access Port, <insert your favourate name here>) # Again, define how many MAPs this vtl will contain. MAP 1: MAP 2: MAP 3: MAP 4: # And the 'big' on, define your media and in which slot contains media. # When the rc script is started, all media listed here will be created # using the default media capacity.

4.- Configurar SCST para dar visibilidad a los elementos de mhVTL por fibra.
Levantar servicio mhVTL:
/etc/init.d/mhvtl start
Comprobación:
# lsscsi

[8:0:0:0] mediumx STK L700 5500 –
[8:0:1:0] tape QUANTUM SDLT600 5500 –
Se observan el VDISK (procedente de prueba anterior) y la librería STK L700 junto con el drive QUANTUM SDLT600 creados por mhVTL.
Se configura para que los dispositivos sean visibles por la HBA:
# echo "add 8:0:1:0 1" > /proc/scsi_tgt/groups/Default/devices
# echo "add 8:0:0:0 2" > /proc/scsi_tgt/groups/Default/devices
Y se pone en modo target el host asociado como interfaz en sysfs:
# echo “1″ >/sys/class/scsi_host/host7/target_mode_enabled
Comprobación:
# cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host7/active_mode
Target
# cat /proc/scsi_tgt/scsi_tgt

Desde el Host con W2K8 que opera en modo initiator se observan desde el administrador de dispositivos de la siguiente forma:
Se ha instalado la Utilidad OneCommand manager de Emulex con propósito de diagnóstico, la librería y el drive emulados se observan de la siguiente forma:
