Title:
  iscsid fails to reopen a connection established by iscsistart

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

Bug description:
  iscsid in the version 2.0-871 is not able to reconnect to a session
  established from the initramfs (with iscsistart)

  To prevent to hang up the system by loosing the root-filesystem, in
  the open-iscsi initscript was introduced following workarround:

  if [ -f /etc/iscsi/iscsi.initramfs ] && [ -d /sys/class/iscsi_session/session1 ]; then
      # We most likely are running with our root on iscsi
      # starting open-iscsi at this point would hang the system (LP: #850960)
      exit 0
  fi

  Please update to open-iscsi-2.0-872, so you can remove this
  workarround.
