Description of problem: Write in the configuration file a path that don't exist: <target iqn.2010-12.org.trasno:iscsi.lvm> backing-store /dev/trasno/windows backing-store /path/not/exist </target> First path exist, and the second one don't exist. If you start tgtd with this configuration it will start correctly without giving a single warning. Neither it writes anything in /var/log/messages Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Allways. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a config file like the one showed, with one existing path and another that don't exist. 2. 3. Actual results: tgtd is launched without any error/warning, and the backing store that don't exist just don't show up. Expected results: At least give a warning somewhere saying that the device don't exist. Notice that if the file exist, but tgtd is not able to access to it, it already gives an error on /var/log/messages: Feb 13 17:23:31 trasno tgtd[27313]: tgtd: backed_file_open(92) Could not open /mnt/images/iscsi/f14_64.img, Permission denied Additional info:
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Should be fixed in Fedora 20's scsi-target-utils-1.0.41-1, if you care to give it a try.
Forgot to look at this. It appears fixed, and now I am using targetcli and targetd. Thanks, and sorry for the delay.
