6. After few seconds the following window will pop-up. Click Open.

7. A .pdf file will open momentarily and from there you just print it as you would with any document (click on printer icon or go to File -> Print)

That’s it. Leave a feedback if you have any problems.

After searching for an hour for a solution, I found that not only this is a common problem with these drives but also there is no solution that is both simple and cheap (free) in Windows.

So I went ahead and I downloaded “Linux Live CD” – its a full featured Linux distro that boots up and runs solely from DVD and offers you full access to anything on that machine. I chose Knoppix distro and I downloaded it free from here. It is a long download but it is worthed every second of waiting. For a not-so-savvy-Linux-guy like me, it was really impressive that it ran fine on machines with various hardware configurations. It is also a good way to learn Linux with no modifications of your Windows box.

The solution to my problem may seem troublesome but it is so easy, even somebody with zero Linux experience can do it.
Besides, I believe that Linux Live CD should be part of any administrator toolbox.
So write the the downloaded ISO on a DVD, insert the DVD into the unit and power up the PC.

First thing you need to do, once Knoppix has booted up and is running, is to plug in the USB drive in and find out its (Linux) name. Go to “Start” -> System Tools -> Disk Utility. Scroll down the left side until you find your USB drive and look in the right panel for its name as shown bellow.

Now go to “Start” -> System Tools -> Konsole and (1) type in

fdisk /dev/sdb

(or whatever your drive name is)
(2) Type in

d

to delete the existing partition and (3) then

w

to update the partition table. You may get some errors like bellow (ignore them):

Shut down, plug the USB drive out and now it is indeed empty (and ready for FreeNAS installation)

How can you change that remotely?

Well, if the switch is still running CDP you’re saved.
As a Net Admin you probably have the means to remote login into a PC on that LAN segment with admin rights.

1. Find out the switch’s old IP Address

If you have access to the router and it runs CDP, a “show cdp neighbors detail” command will do. But if for whatever reason you cannot do that (my case), then there is a nice program called “Cisco CDP Monitor” available here
Download and install it on the remote machine and run it. It is a trial version but for this purpose only, works fine.
IMPORTANT TIP! For some reason, when this software detects a CDP capable device, it plays a continuous sound. You are not going to hear it but it can drive people arround the remote machine nuts! So press the Speaker button on the toolbar (or Ctrl+B) – even though it shows that is red crossed.

2. Connect to the switch.

Now that you know the old IP Address of the switch (in this case it is 172.18.7.252) you need a PC that is in the same subnet. The easiest way to do that is to add a second IP address on the remote PC.  Go into TCP/IP Properties of the remote PC and click “Advanced” button. If you are running DHCP you must temporarily switch to static IP keeping the same configuration.  In this example the current IP address is 172.18.1.118/24.

 Add a second (random) IP address that belong to the same subnet as switch’s IP address (in here is 172.18.7.249/24). When you’re done, you should see something similar to this:

Thus you keep the connectivity with the remote station and be able to ping your switch.
Now you can telnet, ssh or https into your switch using the remote station and change the VLAN1 IP address. Revert the changes on remote PC and you are good to go.

This may sound simple but it can save you a lot of time and a trip.

So here is my “prooved-to-work” step-by-step tutorial.     

A. Prerequisites:

-FreeNas 0.7  is installed and running on a hard-drive or USB thumb-drive (I prefer this one).  I am using revision 4919.

- Web interface is up and running.

- At least one empty HDD, preferably with no previous partitions of any kind.

- Patch the FreeNAS machine with the updated file “iscsi_target.sh” and add it to both /etc/rc.d/ and /cf folders. See http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/freenas/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=4561&start=10#p22148 for details. Do not skip this patch!     

B. Initialize the Hard Drive.  

1. In the web interface go to Disks -> Management . (In my screenshot I already have two disks installed). Click on “plus” sign to add the harddrive:   

Add new disk - step 1

2. In the next screen, choose the target disk from the drop-down menu (if it is not listed, there is either a hardware problem or disk may have some partitions on it – try Rescan disks);  and choose the Preformated file system as “UFS (GPT and Soft Updates). The other two marked fields are optional (for S.M.A.R.T. you need to have the service enabled).  Then click Add button.    

Add New Disk - step 2

3.  Click Apply changes (see bellow). The status of the newly added disk should be “Initializing”. One thing I found is that this status will not change to ONLINE by pressing again Apply Changes or Rescan disks. Only a complete restart will do. I do not recommend going further unless the disk is listed ONLINE. Therefore, reboot the FreeNAS machine.   

Add New Disk - step 3

Once the machine is up and running again, login into web interface and check the ONLINE status of the disk in Disks->Management.   

4. Go to Disks->Format and (carefully) choose your disk from the drop down list , use “UFS (GPT and Soft Updates)” as File system and type in a Volume label. Click Format disk (this will erase all data on that disk) . Confirm it.   

Add New Disk - Step 4

5. Go to Disks->Mount Point and click on the “plus” sign to mount the newly added disk.    

Add New Disk - Step 5

6. In this window choose Type=”Disk”, Disk=”Your disk “, Partition Type=”GPT Partition”, Partition number=”1″, File System “UFS” and Mount point name=”Some name” (I chose MyiSCSI). You can add a description if you like. For simplicity leave everything else at default (not recommended in production). When done, click Add.    

Add New Disk - Step 6

7. Click Apply changes in next screen. This will do two things: change the Status of the disk from “Initializing” to “OK” and mount it in the /mnt/MyiSCSI directory (or whatever you named your Mount Point at step 6):    

Add new disk - Step 7

Optional, you can now go into FreeNAS console and create subdirectories in /mnt/MyiSCSI/ directory - should you need a more structured layout for future targets.   

C. iSCSI Target Preinitialization.

Before adding a new iSCSI target there are few steps to initialize iSCSI service and other parameters.   

1. Go to Services->iSCSI Target and enable the iSCSI target. For simplicity, leave all parameters at default value. Click Save and Restart. You can  verify if the iSCSI service started properly in Services->Status. Both columns should be checked.   

Enable iSCSI service - Step 1

2. In Services->iSCSI Target click on Portals tab. Click on the “plus” sign.   

Enable iSCSI service - Step 2

3. In here, change the IP address from 0.0.0.0:3260 to the IP address of your machine (the one that the iSCSI initiators will look for). Port number should stay the same (3260)  Then click Add.   

Enable iSCSI Service - Step 3

Click Apply changes button to commit changes (screenshot not available)   

4.  In Services -> iSCSI Target go to Initiators Tab and click the “plus” sign.   

Enable iSCSI service - Step 4

5. You can leave everything at default values. If you want to implement some security (advisable) add the IP Addreses for your initiators ( format is 192.168.1.1) and/or the network where they belong (format 192.168.1.0/24). Click Add button.   

Enable iSCSI service - Step 5

Click Apply changes button to commit changes (screenshot not available)   

D. Adding an iSCSI Target   

1. In Services iSCSI Target click on Targets Tab. Click on the “plus” sign in Extent section.   

Add a Target - Step 1

2. In the Add extent window leave Extent name at default and select Type as “File”.  Path is where it gets tricky. Using the browse button, you can browse to /mnt/MyiSCSI directory (or whatever your mountpoint name is) and to its subdirectories (if created at step B7) but YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY TYPE the file name for the extent. I named mine “Target1″. Choose a file size that can go up to the disk’s capacity (I chose 40 GB on a 80 GB disk). If it is smaller you can use the difference for additional iSCSI targets on the same disk. When done click Add.   

Add Target - Step 2

Click Apply changes button to commit changes. You should see the extent listed there (see next screenshot).

3. In Services iSCSI Target click on Targets Tab. Click on the “plus” sign in Target section.

Add Target - Step 3

4. Leave the target name as default, Type as “Disk”. Flags should be changed by preference but I would stick to either read-only or read-write. Storage should have the extent you created at step 2 (verify the path). Everything else can be left as default. Click Add button when done (not shown).

Add Target - Step 4

5. Click Apply changes button to commit changes (screenshot not available). This is normally the step when you get errors if something went wrong. Otherwise you should see something similar to this:

Add Target - Final

Verify that iSCSI service is still running (in Services->Status or Diagnostics -> Log menus). Also, you can use Windows iSCSI Initiator to quickly prove that is functional.

If you get errors check the error message (obviously) and also check the System Log in Diagnostics ->Log menu.

6. (optional) For more targets on same physical disk repeat steps D1 to D5. Make sure you don’t overlap with disk space allocation.
