Description Milos Malik 2008-09-30 16:08:19 UTC

Description of problem:
When you run /etc/init.d/iscsid restart as root, the init script kills the running daemon and itself, so the daemon will not be started again. You have to do it manually.

The init script uses "pkill -KILL iscsid" to kill the daemon. Unfortunately the command also kills the init script itself.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.7.el5

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# /etc/init.d/iscsid start
Turning off network shutdown. Starting iSCSI daemon: [  OK  ]
[  OK  ]
# echo $?
0
# /etc/init.d/iscsid restart
Stopping iSCSI daemon: Killed
# echo $?
137
# 
  
Actual results:
The init script stops the iscsid but does not start it.

Expected results:
The init script stops the iscsid and starts it again.

I think this will be fixed in bz 253834. Do you have access to our 5.3 beta/rc/alpha code? The updated rpm is iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.11.el5. I can send a link to the updated code if you need it.
