iSCSI client setup difficulties
I am trying to set up iscsi linux clients and am having some problems. iscsid is running, I can do discovery fine, but adding the iscsi lun I get the following error:
Code:
iscsiadm -m node -T iqn.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -p y.y.y.y:3260 -l Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, portal: y.y.y.y,3260] iscsid: session [iqn.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx,y.y.y.y,3260] already running. iscsiadm: Could not login to [iface: default, target: iqn.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, portal: y.y.y.y,3260]: iscsiadm: initiator reported error (15 - already exists)

So far I have this fully working on centos but this does not work at all on debian with the same command lines copied and pasted to be sure, I get the already exists error every time centos iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.18.el5 debian open-iscsi 2.0.870~rc3-0.4 Any ideas on this?

LEARN ABOUT FREEBSD

iscsictl

ISCSICTL(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					       ISCSICTL(8)

NAME

     iscsictl -- iSCSI initiator management utility

SYNOPSIS

     iscsictl -A -p portal -t target [-u user -s secret]
     iscsictl -A -d discovery-host [-u user -s secret]
     iscsictl -A -a [-c path]
     iscsictl -A -n nickname [-c path]
     iscsictl -M -i session-id [-p portal] [-t target] [-u user] [-s secret]
     iscsictl -M -i session-id [-n nickname [-c path]]
     iscsictl -R [-p portal] [-t target]
     iscsictl -R -a
     iscsictl -R -n nickname [-c path]
     iscsictl -L [-v]

DESCRIPTION

     The iscsictl utility is used to configure the iSCSI initiator.

     The following options are available:

     -A  Add session.

     -M  Modify session.

     -R  Remove session.

     -L  List sessions.

     -a  When adding, add all sessions defined in the configuration file.  When removing, remove all currently established sessions.

     -c  Path to the configuration file.  The default is /etc/iscsi.conf.

     -d  Target host name or address used for SendTargets discovery.  When used, it will add a temporary discovery session.  After discovery is
	 done, sessions will be added for each discovered target, and the temporary discovery session will be removed.

     -i  Session ID, as displayed by iscsictl -v.

     -n  The "nickname" of session defined in the configuration file.

     -p  Target portal - host name or address - for statically defined targets.

     -s  CHAP secret.

     -t  Target name.

     -u  CHAP login.

     -v  Verbose mode.

     Certain parameters are necessary when adding a session.  One can specify these either via command line (using the -t, -p, -u, and -s
     options), or configuration file (using the -a or -n options).  Some functionality - for example mutual CHAP - is available only via configu-
     ration file.

     Since connecting to the target is performed in background, non-zero exit status does not mean that the session was successfully established.
     Use iscsictl -L to check the connection status.

     Note that in order for the iSCSI initiator to be able to connect to a target, the iscsid(8) daemon must be running.

     Also note that FreeBSD currently supports two different initiators: the old one, iscsi_initiator(4), with its control utility iscontrol(8),
     and the new one, iscsi(4), with iscsictl and iscsid(8).  The only thing the two have in common is the configuration file, iscsi.conf(5).

FILES

     /etc/iscsi.conf  iSCSI initiator configuration file.

EXIT STATUS

     The iscsictl utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES

     Attach to target iqn.2012-06.com.example:target0, served by 192.168.1.1:
	   iscsictl -A -t iqn.2012-06.com.example:target0 -p 192.168.1.1

     Disconnect all iSCSI sessions:
	   iscsictl -Ra

SEE ALSO

     iscsi(4), iscsi.conf(5), iscsid(8)

HISTORY

     The iscsictl command appeared in FreeBSD 10.0.

AUTHORS

     The iscsictl utility was developed by Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org> under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation.
