[Bug 1931455] [NEW] open-iscsi fails to create nodes directory

[Logan M Anderson]

Public bug reported:

open-iscsi will not run without the nodes directory, but the nodes
directory is created and populated by the open-iscsi service.
Chicken/Egg.

Mitigated by creating and populating the nodes with junk directories to
be deleted later:

linuxsudoer at banana01ubu:/etc/iscsi$ sudo systemctl status open-iscsi.service
● open-iscsi.service - Login to default iSCSI targets
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/open-iscsi.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: inactive (dead)
  Condition: start condition failed at Tue 2021-06-08 19:05:21 UTC; 25min ago
---->        ├─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/etc/iscsi/nodes was not met
             └─ ConditionDirectoryNotEmpty=|/sys/class/iscsi_session was not met
       Docs: man:iscsiadm(8)
             man:iscsid(8)
