[Bug 345957] Re: iscsid is looking for targets prior to network being available

[theterran]

As of 2009.06.15 the issue remains in intrepid (2.6.28-11-server).
Moving S25open-iscsi to S50open-iscsi does not resolve the issue.

As a temporary workaround, I have added the following to /etc/rc.local
so that iSCSI volumes/devices configured with the _netdev option in
/etc/fstab are mounted after boot:

mount -a -O _netdev

Granted, the _netdev option is not currently effective during normal
boot, but this does allow the (re-)mounting of only those devices.

I have also found it helpful at this point to change the restart and
shutdown order so that iSCSI targets are logged off prior to stopping
networking, as follows:

$ sudo mv /etc/rc0.d/S41open-iscsi /etc/rc0.d/S32open-iscsi
$ sudo mv /etc/rc6.d/S41open-iscsi /etc/rc6.d/S32open-iscsi
