NAME
iscsi_discovery - discover iSCSI targets
SYNOPSIS
iscsi_discovery <IP> [-p <port>] [-d] [-t <tcp|iser> [-f]] [-m] [-l]
DESCRIPTION
Perform send-targets discovery to the specified IP. If a discovery record is generated, try to login to the portal using the preferred
transport (-t flag specifies the requested transport type, TCP is the default). If login using a certain transport succeeds, mark the por-
tal for automatic login (unless -m flag is used), and disconnect (unless -l flag is used).
For iSCSI discovery to work, open-iscsi services must be running. i.e. iscsid should be up, and the iSCSI modules loaded. This is best
accomplished by the init.d startup script.
[-p=]port-number
set the port number (defualt is 3260).
[-d] print debugging information.
[-t=]transport-type
set transport (default is tcp).
[-f] force specific transport - disable the fallback to tcp (default is fallback enabled). force the transport specified by the argument
of the -t flag.
[-m] manual startup - will set manual startup (default is automatic startup).
[-l] login - login to the new discovered nodes (defualt is false).
