Description cruejones 2011-02-08 20:58:35 UTC
Description of problem:

kickstart iscsi root install does not use --target option even if specified. 
will use any target that may be available at --ipaddr.

iscsi --ipaddr <ip> --target <iqn>

also, when doing a manual install and selecting a specific target it will work
but will not correctly report in /root/anaconda-ks.cfg.  only reports:

isci --ipaddr <ip>

no --target, even though the manual installer works.


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

RHEL6
Fedora14

How reproducible:
always

1. setup an iscsi target server with more than one target exported
2. use "iscsi --ipaddr <ip> --target <target>" in kickstart file
3. install will work but not use actual target specified (unless your lucky) 

Actual results:
specified target not used

Expected results:
specified target used

Additional info:
--target= shouldn't be ignored in ks.cfg and that writeKS should include it.

Comment 6 Alexander Todorov 2011-08-18 15:50:44 UTC
Tested with anaconda-13.21.130 and 2 targets. ks.cfg specified only the second target. The first one was not used and data on it was intact. Moving to VERIFIED.
