Hi,

how can I rename the IQN of an iscsi target?

Motivation:
A server is serving luns. I can backup the luns and restore them via zfs, all 
works like a charm. Suppose, due to one reason or another, I need to reinstall 
the server. I can give it the same hostname, ip address, iscsi target alias but 
NOT the same iqn. Now I need to update all initiators to reflect the new iqn 
which costs a lot of time and is error prone. I'm aware of the need of unique 
iqn's. But the old server is gone so is it's target.

Cluster based solutions are not acceptable in this case. 
And neither iSNS which isn't supported by the initiators.

Other suggestions are more than welcome,

Thank you,

Frederik
