In Linux 5.15+, iscsi_target_mod and configfs are namespace-aware. Isolate iSCSI TCP listeners and storage NICs into a dedicated netns, separate from host management networks. #iscsi #netns

The MTU mismatch causing silent iSCSI login timeouts instead of explicit errors is exactly the kind of trap that burns hours of troubleshooting. Matching Jumbo Frames end-to-end across the netns and ONTAP is critical. Great addition!

Well I THINK I installed windows to iscsi successfully. Now I need to figure out how to do it, since my nic seems to be ignoring the boot command and ipxe legacy mode isn't doing it.

Host-side netns pairs well with the array side: one SVM, its own portset, SAN LIFs that never share a broadcast domain with management.
What survives netns: MTU. A 1500-byte interface against a 9000-byte ONTAP LIF gives iSCSI login timeouts, not errors.

look if we're being honest this all could have been avoided if he had only RDP'd to the FTP and IRC'd the kernel before hot-swapping an iSCSI into the mainframe.
But hey, whatever, laws are optional now. Next thing he'll be deleting System32 before backing up his registry. What even is decency!?

The other day I helped someone better understand what iSCSI is, using a sushi conveyor belt as an analogy.
Still got it.
