Step 5: Partition, format and mount the iSCSI Target
How to use iSCSI Targets on LinuxFrom SynologyWiki
OverviewThis article will guide the administrator into mounting an iSCSI Target from the Synology DiskStation onto a Linux computer. Please make sure that an iSCSI Target has been created on the DiskStation and is ready for use. This article was created with a Fedora 13, and a Synology DiskStation DS508 with DSM 3.0-1354. Please consult with the Linux Distribution website for more specific instructions for each specific version of Linux.
