2. Discover the target. Use the target's IP address, the one used below serves only as an example.

   ~]# iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.1.1
   Starting iscsid:     [ OK ]
   192.168.1.1:3260,1 iqn.2015-06.com.example.test:target1

   The above shows the target's IP address and IQN address. It is the IQN address that is needed for future steps.
3. Connect to the target.

   ~]# iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.2015-06.com.example:target1 --login
   Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2015-06.com.example:target1, portal: 192.168.1.1,3260] (multiple)
   Login in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2015-06.com.example:target1, portal: 192.168.1.1,3260] successful.

7. Make it persistent across reboots by editing the /etc/fstab file.

   ~]# blkid /dev/sdb
   /dev/sdb: UUID="766a3bf4-beeb-4157-8a9a-9007be1b9e78" TYPE="ext4"
   ~]# vim /etc/fstab
   UUID=766a3bf4-beeb-4157-8a9a-9007be1b9e78	/mnt/iscsiTest	ext4	_netdev	0 0
