NAME
iscsi - iSCSI software initiator driver The iscsi driver is a software initiator that transports SCSI commands over TCP/IP as described in RFC 3720. The initiator is administered through iscsiadm(1M). The iscsi initiator acts as a host adapter driver that attaches the appropriate target driver (for example sd(7D) for disks or st(7D) for tapes) for devices it discovers. See the System Administration Guide for more information. /kernel/drv/iscsi 32-bit ELF kernel driver. /kernel/drv/sparcv9/iscsi 64-bit SPARC ELF kernel driver. /kernel/drv/amd64/iscsi 64-bit AMD64 ELF kernel driver. /kernel/drv/iscsi.conf Driver configuration file. /etc/iscsi/* iscsi persistent store.
