Going to try to replay to this again... I am stopped now with a message "12 - iSCSI driver not found" I performed the yum install of the iscsi-initiator-utils and service iscsi starts clean with the only message of "No records found!"
Here is what I have on boot now: [r...@iscsi ~]# service iscsi status iscsid (pid 1387 1386) is running... [r...@iscsi ~]# iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p 192.168.100.4 192.168.100.4:3260,1 iqn.1986-03.com.hp:storage.msa2012i.0824d5872b.a 192.168.100.5:3260,2 iqn.1986-03.com.hp:storage.msa2012i.0824d5872b.a [r...@iscsi ~]# iscsiadm -m node -l Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn. 1986-03.com.hp:storage.msa2012i.0824d5872b.a, portal: 192.168.100.4,3260] Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn. 1986-03.com.hp:storage.msa2012i.0824d5872b.a, portal: 192.168.100.5,3260] iscsiadm: Could not login to [iface: default, target: iqn. 1986-03.com.hp:storage.msa2012i.0824d5872b.a, portal: 192.168.100.4,3260]: iscsiadm: initiator reported error (12 - iSCSI driver not found.

Thanks in Advance for your help.
