Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host 7.1.0 offers iSCSI support during Anaconda installation, but the current content set does not include iSCSI support, so the system will not be able to access the storage. Choosing this option in the installer is not recommended.

Hi Milan, This commit in the 7.1_BETA branch of the Release Notes contains the description from the Doc Text field: bfdca07 Added 4 Known Issues for Atomic. Thanks.
Colin Walters, can we reassign this bug to something else than dracut? Clearly, it is not the fault of dracut, that the atomic host has no support for iSCSI.
