I am ok with something like this, but you need to support both old style and new style for some time, because other apps rely on the current syntax. > > Also, in the current (TOT) iscsiadm man page, there is no mention is > mode discovery whereas iscsiadm --help displays a line for mode discovery > "iscsiadm -m discovery [ -hV ] [ -d debug_level ] [-P printlevel] [ -t > type -p ip:port -I ifaceN ...

You can log into the portals you found. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
