RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: python-rtslib-2.1.fb63-10.el7
Doc Type: If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:
Previously, the "targetcli saveconfig" command did not save the max_data_area_mb control string. As a consequence, the property was lost when restarting the target service or rebooting the node. With this update, the property is saved and restored correctly.

Description Oneata Mircea Teodor 2018-04-11 14:18:30 UTC 
This bug has been copied from bug #1564082 and has been proposed to be backported to 7.5 z-stream (EUS).
Comment 4 Sweta Anandpara 2018-05-04 10:25:27 UTC 
Validated this on a RHGS cluster having the package python-rtslib-2.1.fb63-11.el7.noarch.

The default value of the key "max_data_area_mb" is 8. Used the below command to configure/increase it to 32, and then checked that it was successfully set. Also verified that when the config is saved, the new (changed) value is stored in /etc/target/saveconfig.json, thereby we don't lose that data when the config is cleared and restored.

targetcli /backstores/user:glfs create ob1 1048576 ozone.47.65/block-store/74a1ac0a-d2ed-4cb5-a555-9a6a23a6576a 74a1ac0a-d2ed-4cb5-a555-9a6a23a6576a control="max_data_area_mb=32"

This is good to validate the patch that has gone in in this bug. Please feel free to move this bug to verified after a round of regression. Thanks!
