Public bug reported: This is related to onerirc: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release: 11.10
ubuntu@iscsi-target:~$ apt-cache policy iscsitarget iscsitarget: Installed: 1.4.20.2-5ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.4.20.2-5ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1.4.20.2-5ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I try to make a simple iscsi target but fail to do so with the following steps: sudo apt-get install iscsitarget Change /etc/default/iscsitarget so that ISCSITARGET_ENABLE=true sudo apt-get install iscsitarget-dkms sudo /etc/init.d/iscsitarget start sudo touch /etc/ietd.conf Add a the following in /etc/ietd.conf: Target iqn.2012-02.org.sxb.iscsi-target:san1 Lun 0 Path=/dev/sdb Type=blockio Alias sanalias sudo /etc/init.d/iscsitarget restart I experience no error message, but /proc/net/iet/volume is still empty. I then look at /etc/init.d/iscsitarget to try to start the service manually sudo modprobe -q crc32c sudo modprobe iscsi_trgt sudo ietd -f -d 7 Still nothing in /proc/net/iet/volume However, it works if i launched the daemon with the -c option: sudo ietd -f -d 7 -c /etc/ietd.conf According to man (8) ietd: -c filename, --config=filename Specify configuration file, default is /etc/ietd.conf However, i m afraid there is no actual default set in the code. Excerpt from ietd.c : {"config", required_argument, 0, 'c'}, Looks to me the man page should be changed not to mention any default config option and the init script should start the daemon with the -c /etc/ietd.conf option. ** Affects: iscsitarget (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/933510 Title: ietd 'config' required argument not used by init script To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iscsitarget/+bug/933510/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
