Google for any iscsiadm tutorial. There can be multiple problems - target not connected, not allowed, some config missing, etc etc.

I would check your iSCSI storage and ensure that LUN is actually created and assigned to the target.
Given that you created iSCSI storage, you should see the LUN in "lsscsi" output (needs to be apt-installed).

If you dont see new disk in "lsscsi" then your backend storage is likely misconfigured.

Thank you folk iSCSI storage has been configured and working fine with version 7. from lsscsi command output, is there any missing?

Are these luns already multipathed by chance?
What is the output of lsblk?

Open a terminal to PVE, run "journalctl -f"
Open another terminal and run "pvesm list MD3200i"
Anything interesting in the log?

I ran into this problem when I had to reinstall PVE from drive boot failure. I'm not 100% sure how I fixed but the last thing I did was to make sure the PVE iSCSI storage name matched the TrueNas dataset, not the TrueNas share name. After that my LVM was able to see the base volume.

Hope this helps someone in the future.
