iSCSI Initiator X - on Yosemite.

[ucaboys]

I'm testing the iSCSI Initiator X - the free initiator for OS X.
My machine is currently running Yosemite Beta3 and I'm unable to add portals for the system to look for the available network drives.


Olivia,
I know this might not be the right forum, but I could find an other Forum where this might fit the topic.

Regards,

Hi,

The problem is that the kernel module will not load.
#sudo kextload -v /System/Library/Extensions/KScsiPrt.kext
Password:
Requesting load of /System/Library/Extensions/KScsiPrt.kext.
/System/Library/Extensions/KScsiPrt.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) not loadable (reason unspecified); check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).

With kextutil command can see there is a problem with the signing of the code.
#sudo kextutil -v /System/Library/Extensions/KScsiPrt.kext
Password:
Defaulting to kernel file '/System/Library/Kernels/kernel'
Diagnostics for /System/Library/Extensions/KScsiPrt.kext:
Code Signing Failure: code signature is invalid
/System/Library/Extensions/KScsiPrt.kext appears to be loadable (not including linkage for on-disk libraries).
ERROR: invalid signature for com.kernsafe.driver.kscsiprt, will not load

Please.
Support is it possible to correct this problem?

Thanks in avance.

I'm trying to test it on 10.8.5 with no result. I can open the Portal Manager, but the Add button doesn't add the server by IP or host name. Little Snitch doesn't see any outbound connections from the initiator, and a tcpdump on the server shows no traffic to port 3260.

I also don't see any kernel extensions loaded. Trying to load the KScsiPrt manually returned:

Check library declarations for your kext with kextlibs(8).

If this is just a build issue, I'd be happy to test out a newer build.

I am also attempting to use iSCSI initiator X, though I am still on mavericks (10.9.5).
The problem I am facing is that I need the IQN of the initiator in order to provide that to my target to provision a LUN.
I cannot find anyplace in the UI to obtain the IQN the initiator will be using.

thanks for any assistance,
nathan

I'm on 10.9.5 and I have the same issue.
I'm trying to connect to a Netgear ReadyNAS 102.

[neutronjeff]

I have the same problem on 10.9.5.
Is the free vesion no longer supported?

[mlbailey]

I have the same issue. I can't seem to get ISCSI Initiator X to work. I can't add a portal.

[k33gs]

I'd also like to report that Initiator X is not able to add my iSCSI target in the portal. I'm also running Yosemite. Is this a dead product?

[Scuba_Guy]

I am having the exact same problem. I'm on 10.10.2 and the add button does not work. Has anyone received a solution to this issue?
