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 portal 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 (default 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 (default is false).
