NAME

       iscsi_discovery - discover iSCSI targets

SYNOPSIS

       iscsi_discovery <IP> [-p <port>] [-d] [-t <tcp|iser> [-f]] [-m] [-l]

DESCRIPTION

       Perform	send-targets  discovery  to  the  specified IP. If a discovery record is generated, try to login to the portal using the preferred
       transport (-t flag specifies the requested transport type, TCP is the default).	If login using a certain transport succeeds, mark the por-
       tal for automatic login (unless -m flag is used), and disconnect (unless -l flag is used).

       For  iSCSI  discovery  to  work,  open-iscsi services must be running. i.e. iscsid should be up, and the iSCSI modules loaded. This is best
       accomplished by the init.d startup script.

       [-p=]port-number
	      set the port number (defualt is 3260).

       [-d]   print debugging information.

       [-t=]transport-type
	      set transport (default is tcp).

       [-f]   force specific transport - disable the fallback to tcp (default is fallback enabled).  force the transport specified by the argument
	      of the -t flag.

       [-m]   manual startup - will set manual startup (default is automatic startup).

       [-l]   login - login to the new discovered nodes (defualt is false).

NAME

     iscsi-target -- service remote iSCSI requests

SYNOPSIS

     iscsi-target [-46DV] [-b block length] [-f configuration file] [-p port number] [-s maximum number of sessions] [-t target name]
		  [-v verbose arg]

DESCRIPTION

     iscsi-target is the server for iSCSI requests from iSCSI initiators.  iscsi-target listens for discovery and login requests on the required
     port, and responds to those requests appropriately.

     Options and operands available for iscsi-target:

     -4      iscsi-target will listen for IPv4 connections, and respond back using IPv4.  This is the default address family.

     -6      iscsi-target will listen for IPv6 connections, and respond back using IPv6.

     -b blocksize
	     Specify the underlying block size for iSCSI storage which will be served.	The possible sizes are: 512, 1024, 2048, and 4096 bytes,
	     with the default being 512 bytes.

     -D      When this option is specified, iscsi-target will not detach itself from the controlling tty, and will not become a daemon.  This can
	     be useful for debugging purposes.

     -f configfile
	     Use the named file as the configuration file.  The default file can be found in /etc/iscsi/targets.  See targets(5) for more informa-
	     tion.

     -p port number
	     Use the port number provided as the argument as the port on which to listen for iSCSI service requests from initiators.

     -s maximum number of sessions
	     Allow the maximum number of sessions to be initiated when connecting to the target.

     -t filename
	     The target name (as it appears to the iSCSI initiator) can be specified using this flag.

     -V      iscsi-target will print the utility name and version number, and the address for bug reports, and then exit.

     -v argument
	     The amount of information shown can be varied by using this command.  Possible values of argument are net to show network-related
	     information, iscsi to show iSCSI protocol-related information, scsi to show SCSI protocol information, and all to show information
	     from all of the above arguments.

FILES

     /etc/iscsi/targets 	the list of exported storage
     /var/run/iscsi-target.pid	the PID of the currently running iscsi-target
