What version of open-iscsi are you using? We only have struct idbm in 
idbm.c now.

It was used to access the iscsi db. The iscsi db has changed to ending 
up just a bunch of files in /etc/iscsi/, so the struct has been less 
usefull and is not mostly use for locking and referencing the the config 
file the db recrods are based on.
