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 recordis 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 portal for automaticlogin (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. iscsidshould be up, and the iSCSI modules loaded. This is best accomplished by theinit.d startup script.

[-p=]port-number: set the port number (default 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 (default is false).
