I have on our NAS a 500GB iSCSI, and I can't find who is using it (if at all)

It has connections from 2 VM Hosts, but on these hosts, there is no mention on the storage view that it actually uses it.

Is there a way I can locate where is it used?

  • can it be that it's used by the iSCSI adapter within one of the VM clients? How can I check that?

    ID: vm500tb QNAP Name: iqn.2004-04.com.qnap:ts-859uplus:iscsi.vm500tb.ca5d40 QNAP ID: id:0 - vm500tb Connections: 192.168.0.7 : iqn.1998-01.com.vmware:localhost-650eca72 192.168.0.41 : iqn.1998-01.com.vmware:localhost-6870acb LUN Serial Number: 83214139-cc84-4d02-a72a-64910524dded

to note:

192.168.0.7 and .41 - are both VM 5.0

the QNAP NAS is a TS-859U+

I am ready to provide more details (which hopefully will assist me in finding the users of this rogue iSCSI)

On my QNAP access log, I get the following users to the iSCSI

    Login date   Login time  Users                                      Source IP    Computer name   Connection type    Accessed resources

    2012-08-05  08:46:41    iqn.1998-01.com.vmware:localhost-650eca72   192.168.0.7     ---         iSCSI               iqn.2004-04.com.qnap:ts-859uplus:iscsi.vm500tb.ca5d40
  • I want to note, it's a possibility that NO one uses this iSCSI no more.
