Seeing this bug still in 19-Beta-TC3 -- output of systemctl status iscsi.service follows:

Comment 3 Tomasz Torcz 2013-05-15 06:23:46 UTC
I think iscsi.service should have ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=/var/lib/iscsi/nodes
I'm not sure thought - some iSCSI expert should check if there is a valid use scenario with empty "nodes" directory.

That works, and it makes more sense then the conditional on /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi here.  I'll go ahead and make this change, thanks.

Comment 6 Adam Williamson 2013-05-29 01:12:17 UTC
Tested by building a live image including this build, and indeed iscsi.service now fails to try and start, with 'start condition failed', which is what I'd expect.

I don't have an iSCSI setup here at present so I can't confirm that iSCSI installs still work OK with the updated package, though. I really need to spend a few minutes to set up an iSCSI drive on my NAS...

Comment 7 Vojtěch Boček 2013-05-29 08:14:57 UTC
iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.873-6.fc19 tested on machine without iscsi, it properly disables itself with "start condition failed".
