How is using the discovery command automatic if I still need to specify all the details for each target?

Anyway, I'm primarily concerned with why, on startup, it does not login when the conf is set to automatic. It spits out the "no records found" message as if it spelled things wrong :) Anything I can do to troubleshoot that?

As far as the automatic login, I did set it in the conf. Then I logged out of the target and restarted the service. It said "Logging into targets" or something similar and then spit out the "no records found" message.

So I assumed my issues were all related. We know that isn't the case :)

You said something about using discovery mode to automatically login?

Not me.

like iscsiadm -m discovery -l? Would that not work regardless of the config setting?

It should. It is
iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -l

Thanks again!

Hello all,

Before I ask anything I'd like to say thank you to all the devs. I appreciate the existence of your project and your hard work!

Now I've got a little situation which should hopefully be chalked up to my newb status with open-iscsi.

Per the snippet below I can't seem to manually login directly to a single target. Every time I try I get "iscsiadm: no records found!". Whether I use the target name, portal, or both. As you can see I have a discovery entry for the portal, and I have a target entry in the node table. The only way I can login to this target is with a blanket node login. It does work. The other interesting bit is when I set the config to auto connect to all targets on startup, that did _not_ work. So apparently the auto connect doesn't use the blanket node login mechanism or some such. Any thoughts or flames are appreciated :P

Thanks again!

Normally the name of the target starts with "iqn". A "Q" instead of a "G" like above. Below you use a "Q", which is probably why it is not working. Sometimes you also drop parts of the name.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.2002-07.com.archose:3t.r5.0 -p 10.0.0.11:3260 -l
If the target has a "G" in the node db, then you need to pass it a "G" here. This has a "Q" in the iqn.

This one will not work because it is misspelled. It is missing the end part ":3t.r5.0", and you need to use a "G" like in the node db.

This one is just mispelled. No ending.

See this has a "G". So you need to use a "G" or fix it on the target so it is spelled like how you want.


portal: 10.0.0.11,3260]

For the automatic login, how are you settting the automatic login? By setting it in /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf then running discovery or did you run the iscsiadm in update mode to set the setting? If the latter maybe you had it mispelled so it did not get picked up.
