Hi
I can't believe I have done this, but I have a vSphere environment which has been running with no problems using a TS-459Pro+ I have added another host to the VMware cluster, and when I came to configure the iSCSI target I realise that I cannot remember the CHAP password, I have been through the admin interface, and I cannot find anywhere to reset it, can some please help?? Firmware version is 3.8.1 Build 20121205
CHAP password for iSCSI Target

Re: CHAP password for iSCSI Target
On the iSCSI target management page, you can set the CHAP password here for Targets....
(this is in firmware 3.8.1, but I don't think has changed for awhile).
Home -> Disk Management -> iSCSI
Locate the iSCSI Target on the Target Management page and click the middle button "Modify" for that target.
Attaching a screenshot to assist...

Re: CHAP password for iSCSI Target
Thanks for coming back to me, I have been all through these pages, the only option I have is to view connections, I don't seem to be able to modify the target. The only thing I can modify are the attached LUNs. I have attached a screenshot.
I am thinking I may need to create a new target and LUN and migrate the virtual machines to this

Re: CHAP password for iSCSI Target
The password is stored in cleartext for each target. Look in the file /etc/config/iscsi_trgt.conf, for fields named "CHAPPasswd".
No comment on the wisdom of this scheme, but at least it will save your bacon.

Thanks for this. Another rasher was spared.
