I've got a couple of different iSCSI targets, one supplies the root drive for network booting, the other provides additional storage volumes.
For the root drive, it's preferable to have the noop timeouts switched to 0, but I'd ideally like noop to be turned on for the other iSCSI targets (and for any more that happen to come along?) I can do that by putting the noop 0 settings in the /var/lib/iscsi/nodes/iqn... file for the root device, and leave /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf to the defaults (or vice versa.) However it looks like if I do that, and then run an iscsiadm discover command against the root endpoint, it will revert back to the iscsid.conf defaults. Obviously, there's a limit to how much I can stop me, or anyone else that uses the hosts involved, from accidentally shooting ourselves in the foot. https://github.com/open-iscsi/open-iscsi/blob/4b1412fde1dbd76cf8a9b9d005dc865ffc7937c7/usr/config.h#L63 tantalisingly hints at it being possible to configure this based on TargetName, but it's not clear that will work from iscsid.conf side of things, and I can't see this documented anywhere as a possibility.
