Yes. And not just the startup setting, but also all other settings. 
These settings are read during discovery and accordingly the database is 
created.  Updation of the records for the discovered targets will 
require the usage of 'iscsiadm -m node ' command.

Title:
  iscsid is started before networking

Status in “open-iscsi” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have two servers hooked up to a SAN, and when attempting to connect
  to the shared LUN, at least one of them can't connect automatically,
  and comes up without /dev/sdb visible in /proc/partitions

  [   39.284628] Loading iSCSI transport class v2.0-870.
  [   39.288712] iscsi: registered transport (tcp)Jul 16 14:03:13 kvm-test2 kernel: [   39.294101] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready
  [   39.310000] iscsi: registered transport (iser)
  [   39.312942] iscsid (905): /proc/905/oom_adj is deprecated, please use /proc/905/oom_score_adj instead.
  [...]
  [   41.673758] tg3 0000:02:00.0: eth1: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex
  [   41.673761] tg3 0000:02:00.0: eth1: Flow control is off for TX and off for RX
  [   41.675092] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth1: link becomes ready

  After bootup, "iscsiadm -m discovery" and "iscsiadm -m node" show
  correct info, and a subsequent "iscsiadm -m node -l" successfully
  connects to the LUN. However, this does not work automatically. I have
  set node.startup = automatic in /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf and tries to
  increase node.conn[0].timeo.login_timeout from 15 to 60 without
  success. We only use the auto-generated initiator name as
  authentication, no chap or otherwise.

  Any idea how to fix this?
