[Repeat] HowTo Forge ☛ How to Install an iSCSI Storage Server on Ubuntu 22.04
The Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) is a protocol utilized in Storage Area Networks (SANs) for sharing block-level storage resources such as partitions of Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) or Solid State Drives (SSDs), Logical Volume Management (LVM) partitions, or block files across a network. Employing a client-server architecture, iSCSI facilitates the transmission of SCSI commands over TCP/IP networks between two primary components: the initiator and the target. The iSCSI Target is a service hosted on an iSCSI server, responsible for granting access to the shared storage. Conversely, the iSCSI Initiator functions as the client, establishing a connection to the target in order to utilize the shared storage resources.
