Re: Broadcom NIC sessions not retaining on reboot (node.startup=automatic not working)
Hi Vaibhav, Thank you so much. I did the settings as you suggested and it worked :) In case someone faces the same situation i.e. Broadcom sessions not retaining on reboot, you can proceed as: Step 1. Do discovery as:* iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p IP:port -I iface* Step 2. Set node.startup = manual in iscsid.conf, and then run iscsiadm to do the setting on each specific portal as:* iscsiadm -m node -p ip:port -I iface -o update -n node.startup -v automatic *Step 3. Then login as:* iscsiadm -m node -I iface -p ip:port -l* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups open-iscsi group.

Re: Broadcom NIC sessions not retaining on reboot (node.startup=automatic not working)
It is also possible that the corresponding nic interface is up on boot. It's worthwhile to make sure that the ONBOOT=yes is set inside that corresponding sysconfig network script.
