@Serge, Hi, had a customer ping me about this bug, any updates?  Here's
his explanation:

You may recall our conversation around iSCSI connectivity for binding
block volume with host in OpenStack. The host is Linux container and
block volume is on EMC VMAX. The I/O path is over iSCSI.  The
environment is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x64. Our observation and KB found from
internet is also given.

- Regular attach volume works fine (iSCSI login occurs between compute node and 
array target). In this context, Compute node is a physical host
- When creating bootable volume, controller node needs to perform iSCSI login 
for instance to copy.  We are seeing issues with this. In this case, Compute 
node is an LXC container.  
- Same isciadm commands that fail within the container, run fine when running 
outside the container (on physical controller host)

Looks like,

    There’s a iSCSI kernel bug with mounting a target within a container
    The issue is with multiple namespaces it appears.

Do we know whether this is fixed?
