Author iSCSI with qlogic sansurfer and infortrend eonstor

Hi all,

I am looking for some help with the configuration of my iscsi
connection.
We have an Infortrend Eonstor iscsi with luns we want to access via a
Qlogic card in a HP Prolient under RHEL 4 running 2.6.9-34.ELsmp
kernel.

All is fine when I run the iscli tool. The qlogic card is found, I was
able to attach a target (automatically discovered after a few minutes)

HBA description in iscli :

1. HBA Model: QLA4010 HBA Serial Number: FS20604B16489 HBA Port:
0
iSCSI Name: iqn.2000-04.com.qlogic:qla4010.fs20604b16489
Alias:
IP Address: 192.168.1.51 Instance #: 0

Target description in iscli :

Target ID: 2 IP: 192.168.1.30 Port: 3260
ISCSI Name: iqn.2002-10.com.infortrend:raid.sn6792085.00
Alias:
State: Session Active

The problem is that although the session is active, we "Cannot obtain
Lun Infomation for this target."
So I enabled the debugging logs before launching iscli and got :

- at launch :

- when querying luns :

May 8 16:19:41 sh-prod-01 kernel: scsi2: qla4extioctl_scsi_passthru:

I have been looking for some indications about these messages for hours
without finding anything, including the qlogic support site.
The driver compiled without any error, including the isns object file.

Here is my lsmod :

I would really appreciate some help or direction.

Thanks
Sylvain
