Description of problem:

iscsid is destroying sessions when we want to be retrying the login. We retried in 5.2, but in bz 461294 we introduced a bug where we now destroy the session.

This is fixed in iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.17.el5.

Comment 8 Mike Gahagan 2008-12-15 21:58:28 UTC
tested with a 5.3 snap 6 install to an iscsi target. Shut off installed system, pulled the network cable from the target, turned on the installed box, saw it tried to login, waited 5 min, then went and plugged the cable in and booting commenced normally after a couple of failure messages from iscsistart. 

system also survives cable-pull after boot-up.
