Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.
# ^ Known Issue must be selected!
Using targetcli to configure the FCoE Target will fail with the message "Could not create RTSRoot in configFS". Ensuring the fcoe-target service is running with "service fcoe-target start" will let targetcli work properly.
Description of problem:
Execute 'targetcli ls /' right after 'yum install -y fcoe-target-utils' will get these miss-leading ouput:
====
[root@storageqe-13 ~]# targetcli ls /
Warning: Could not load preferences file /root/.targetcli/prefs.bin.
Could not create RTSRoot in configFS.
o- / .............................. [...]
o- backstores ................... [...]
o- pscsi ......... [0 Storage Object]
====
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fcoe-target-utils-2.0rc1.fb16-3.el6.noarch
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Execute 'targetcli ls /' right after fcoe-target-utils installed (no daemon, no kernel module).
2.
3.
Actual results:
Miss leading error message.
Expected results:
Inform user to start 'fcoe-target' daemon first.
Additional info:
In RHEL 6.3 GA (fcoe-target-utils-2.0rc1.fb10-5.el6.noarch), we got correct error message:
===
Warning: Could not load preferences file /root/.targetcli/prefs.bin.
Kernel modules not loaded yet, start the fcoe-target service.
===
Requesting blocker since regression.
