The Storage Administration Guide (SAG) needs a new chapter on how to setup an iSCSI target. There is no mention of how to do this in the current documentation. At minimum the section should cover the following: - How to edit /etc/tgt/targets.conf to add a new target. - Starting the tgtd service - Using the "tgtadm" user space utility to set up the target and add new ones dynamically.
Created attachment 551669 [details] draft documentation Draft documentation attached. It has a bare-bones description of targets.conf and starting/stopping tgtd, really as a strawman so you can tell me what more needs to be added. Upstream also has a manpage for targets.conf (written by me) that it might be nice to include in the RHEL6 pkg. Finally, I dimly remember mchristi in some bug saying something about executables that should not be considered user-visible. Was tgtadm one of them? Should we be documenting tgtadm usage? I'm sorry I can't remember the bz.
I don't remember what I said about this. I have happily forgot it :) I actually could never figure out a policy on if users should use tgt-adim or tgtadm or edit targets.conf then do service tgtd whatever.
