only "/dev/sda" disk is showing whereas "sdb" also should have shown under /dev directory ..... unable to confirm the actual problem
please give your valuable inputs guys ...... thanks in advance ......
First, read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. You are not providing NEAR enough information to let anyone help you. You say RHEL6, and post IP addresses. You leave out what kind of SAN you're attaching to, how you're attaching to it, over what kind of HBA, using which drivers, and how the SAN was configured, or what you've done/tried so far. In short, nothing that would let anyone help you.
Since you're using a SAN and RHEL, you can call Red Hat support, since you're PAYING FOR RHEL, right? They can assist you.
It looks like there are no LUNs configured on the targed. Or not exposed to your initiator. /var/log/messages shows that you have access to the controller, but nothing else.
I forgot to also recommend the lsscsi command. It should confirm what I am saying. RHEL6 doesn't include it by default; run yum install lsscsi.
i configured only rhel6 scsi storage in vmware8 in my win7 laptop. nothing else ..
/var/log/messeges screenshot attached ....
...and is there some reason you ignored ALL of the questions I asked you initially??? Again, you leave out what kind of SAN you're attaching to, how you're attaching to it, over what kind of HBA, using which drivers, and how the SAN was configured. Again, RHEL6 is NOT FREE...are you PAYING for RHEL6? And without an HBA or some sort of attachment to a SAN, how is it going to know about it?

it seems that on your iscsi server you have not mapped any LUNs to the target you are connecting to.
Go to your iscsi server and check /etc/tgt/targets.conf
maybe you need to reload the targets : tgt-admin --update ALL --force
I have found the problem ... when I type the command "#tgt-admin --show" ....
It shows me the only lun0 and the volume I mapped with it is not showing
Where as I modified the newly created target in /etc/tgt/targets.Conf but after that while I tried to discover this lun from initiator through iscsiadm command it did not show me the modified value. It's showed me only the lun0.
So - is it solved or not? If not, what do you get in /var/log/messages on the initiator?
I don't know where the target logs its messages, but look there as well.

Good luck..I asked several questions, and got answers to none of them. Even though the OP asked for our 'valuable inputs'.
OP, if you're not going to answer questions when asked, there isn't much point in posting in a forum. You'd be far better off (as I suggested initially), calling Red Hat support. Since, AGAIN, you are PAYING for RHEL, right?????
