Do you have only the target records you want to log into automatically marked as node.startup=automatic? > because previous discovery entry is still there in "/var/lib/iscsi/ > nodes" and "/var/lib/iscsi/send_targets". I didn't follow you when you meantioned the previous entry.

Aare you running a custom script that logs into specific targets or how do you log into targets if the init script does not run loginall=automatic? > > But this doesn't work across reboot.I lost my 5 connections after > reboot though above 2 lines were commented. > > Thus,what should I do for persistent connections across reboot? I think you just want to set the targets you want to log into with the node.startup = automatic. When that loginall=automatic gets run, it will only log into those targets. iscsiadm -m node -T target -p ip:port -o update -n node.startup -v startup I think with IET you can set up lists to control how can log into which target.
