Public bug reported: When installing using an iscsi disk, the initiator name changes between install and postinstall.
When installing, the open-iscsi package gets extracted and sets up /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi as InitiatorName=iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:3271f5491f86 is used to login to the iscsi target, so during install you must have that name in the allowed list. After install, and you reboot, it uses a different name: InitiatorName=iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:9d338319d9b4 It would be benifitial and less admin overhead if the name was created, and used in all steps. This should also be atleast printed, like on the iscsi screen where it asks for the iscsi target to connect to, so that the admin knows the name, and doesn't have to login to a different virtual console and run iscsi-iname to find out what it's using, then flip back over. ** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924583 Title: iscsi install initiator name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/924583/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
