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.

Description of problem:
iSCSI devic is connected by emulex iSCSI HBA, boot with rhevh media cannot find iSCSI lun.
Tested with RHEL6 media, it can find iSCSI lun and installed rhel to it.

dmesg + messages

19a2:0702 (kmod is be2iscsi) Mass storage controller: Emulex Corporation OneConnect 10Gb iSCSI Initiator is not a full HW HBA, it's iscsi off-load card and still requires iscsid on the Linux side.
Currently, rhevh doesn't support such disk for installation (it should still work for RHEV storage domain).

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 520111 ***

FYI after iscsid is started and iscsiadm -m fw -l iscsi disks showed up on rhevh

FYI RHEL 6.1 setup on such iscsi disk has this in boot parameters:
ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_XXX-lv_root iscsi_firmware ip=eth2:dhcp ifname=eth2:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX rd_LVM_LV=vg_XXX/lv_root rd_LVM_LV=vg_XXX/lv_swap

And last FYI, RHEL /boot is also on iscsi, so boot access is provided via BIOS interface on the card:
#cat /boot/grub/device.map 
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(hd0)     /dev/mapper/mpathb

# multipath -ll
