I'm having a weird problem with open-iscsi attempting to use it with SBD. This is on SLES11 SP2 with the HAE and open-iscsi installed.
I created an iSCSI Target on system A (using iscsitarget) and set up a 1MB device/LUN for use with SBD. I then used YaST / iSCSI Initiator on system B (which installs open-iscsi) to discover and log in to the iSCSI Target (with no auth credentials), found the LUN, and set up SBD to use that device (by ID). This all works great. I set the open-iscsi service to start on boot, and when I logged in to the Target I specified 'onboot' as well. The file /etc/iscsi/nodes/iqn.2012-07.com.example:ac247b7e-57fd-4abc-9dd5-3b0100f92fd7/10.0.0.3,3260,1/default in fact does include the line node.startup=onboot But when I restart, it looks like the open-iscsi service starts but it will NOT log in to the target automatically. I'm forced to manually start up YaST / iSCSI Initiator / Device Discovery and log in again. This makes the cluster node essentially useless, since it can't automatically rejoin the cluster without manual intervention. Note that this same problem exists on every node (approaching about 10, now) that I or my team has set up. I've tried everything I can think of .... help? TIA... Details: SLES11 SP2 with openais-1.1.4-5.6.66 open-iscsi-2.0.872-0.35.1 Target is same OS, 1MB file created using 'dd' and then set up as an iSCSI Target using 'iscsitarget' Discovery via YasT / iSCSI Initiator / Device Discovery works great, Log In (manually) works great - specified 'onboot' and 'No Authentication' in YaST when logging in manually. I have also set up normal ext3-formatted iSCSI Targets and they work fine (manually). Sum total of iSCSI related messages in 'dmesg' is: ... [ 20.826145] Loading iSCSI transport class v2.0-870.
