iscsi_discovery(8)
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 portal
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).
