iSCSI mounts in macOS I have a question about using iSCSI mounts in macOS (High Sierra). What is the preferred way to mount iSCSI targets in macOS? Also, is it possible to do so from Recovery Mode? Any advice would be appreciated.
Regarding @jwalker's answer above, the GitHub project has 0 commits since 2018, and Kernsafe's product has not seen an update since 11/2019. So both can effectively be considered abandonware at this point. Neither are working on Big Sur.
Is there any way in 2021 and with macOS 11 to use network based block storage? I have some specific apps that require a &quot;real&quot; block device to store data. SMB/NFS won't work. I own a license for SNS globalSAN but it causes kernel panics in 11.x and it seems like it's an &quot;Apple isn't giving us a way to fix it&quot; type of problem since other vendors (ATTO etc) have similar warnings posted.
Hope this changes soon - it's a real shame that macOS doesn't have a native iSCSI driver (Windows has had one for almost 20 years now).
edit: I found one that works: Daemon Tools Lite for macOS. Performance seems to cap out around ~65MB/s (globalSAN was &gt;100) but it seems stable and reliable so far.
