Created attachment 917050 [details] output of libguestfs-test-tool Description of problem: libguestfs has no means to set an explicit initiator IQN for iSCSI connections. A default intiator IQN ( incase of LIBGUESTFS-BACKEND=direct ) or a random IQN ( in case of libvirt backend ) is used for iSCSI connections. This creates problems when storage systems expect a preconfigured initiator IQN to be used while establishing iSCSI connections. The underlying QEMU command has an option (`-iscsi initiator-name=<initiator-iqn>' to set initiator IQN string explicitly. But currently libguestfs has no option to set this parameter and pass it on to QEMU. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.26.3 How reproducible: Use guestfish -a iscsi://<target IQN> against a storage system which validates incoming connection against a preconfigured Initiator IQN Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Error while connecting to iSCSI target Expected results: Should be able to establish iSCSI connection with any Initiator IQN Additional info:
