Description Joey Boggs 2009-07-14 14:27:56 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #437522 +++

Description of problem:

iscsi-initiator-utils runs chkconfig on service start to enable/disable
services.

1) This is horribly broken on a read-only root system
2) This will cause chkconfig to recalculate dependencies on the network service...
3) ... causing the ordering to change out from under /etc/rc *while it's
running*. That's not good.
4) I'm somewhat surprised SELinux actually lets you do this

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.3.fc9.x86_64

Mike, any update on this?  Please please please fix this for Fedora 9.  Freeze
is 5~ days away.

--- Additional comment from mchristi on 2008-04-04 12:20:04 EDT ---

Sorry I did not know this was a blocker. I was working on my RHEL5 excpetions
and blockers instead. I just need to do some real testing for my patches for
this and 436341 and I will get them checked in today or Sat.

--- Additional comment from mchristi on 2008-04-04 15:11:19 EDT ---

Fixed in iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.6

*** Bug 436341 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

--- Additional comment from jonstanley on 2008-04-14 10:56:28 EDT ---

Huh?  This is still there (in /etc/init.d/iscsid):

        echo -n $"Turning off network shutdown. "
        # we do not want iscsi or network to run during system shutdown
        # incase there are RAID or multipath devices using
        # iscsi disks
        chkconfig --level 06 network off
        rm /etc/rc0.d/*network
        rm /etc/rc6.d/*network

well, I take that back - you mentioned it's fixed in a later version than what's
in F9, but I can't find this version in koji:

This is fixed in CVS, but not tagged in CVS nor built in koji.

PLEASE take the 10 seconds to do this :)

--- Additional comment from katzj on 2008-04-18 13:47:21 EDT ---

Changing the status back to ASSIGNED so that it doesn't get lost.

--- Additional comment from katzj on 2008-04-24 17:27:47 EDT ---

Mike?

--- Additional comment from mchristi on 2008-04-25 12:51:59 EDT ---

Sorry, I thought I could not could not add it yet, because it was not a critical
bug fix? Can I build it so it goes out in the F9 release or just build it into 
koji and then release and push it after F9 is out?

--- Additional comment from notting on 2008-04-25 13:12:46 EDT ---

It's on the blocker list, so building in F9 and following 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/FinalFreezePolicy would be
appreciated.

--- Additional comment from mchristi on 2008-04-25 14:45:58 EDT ---

Thanks Bill.

The final release is iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.7.fc9. It is built in and
I sent a request to rel-eng for it to be included in f9.

--- Additional comment from ajax on 2008-04-29 10:01:45 EDT ---

% koji latest-pkg --quiet f9-final iscsi-initiator-utils
iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.7.fc9   f9-final              michaelc

Calling this one fixed.

Comment 1 Joey Boggs 2009-07-14 14:29:48 UTC

This problem also occurs in RHEL 5.3 and 5.4 Beta and will prevent RHEV-H from being set as a readonly rootfs

Comment 2 Mike Christie 2009-12-22 06:50:39 UTC

You can download the new rpm here:

Comment 4 Mike Christie 2009-12-23 02:04:10 UTC

I think I goofed up on this and did not check in the updated file (forgot it was the source file). Setting this to FAILS_QA so I can redo the rpm.

Comment 6 michal novacek 2010-01-21 11:48:26 UTC

In the new version of iscsi-initiator-utils, chkconfig is gone. 

This is the diff of two versions of /etc/init.d/iscsid:
$ diff iscsid.iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.871-0.14.el5.i386.rpm \ iscsid.6.2.0.871-0.10.el5
