Either way, I think it would be best to add a I wanted a way to change the iscsi install options during the install without rebooting. For example, if the user entered target IP address, port, initiator name, on the iscsi screen, hits "next", then later wants to go back and change any or all iscsi values. And, in theory the user can modify /etc/iscsid.conf during the install. So, I logout and kill -9 all iscsid instances to clear everything. > > iscsiadm command. iscaidm would then tell the daemon to either remove > > all the running sessions in the kernel then stop or to just kill the > > daemon in such a way that we can restart it later and it can rebuild its > > state. > > Yeah, that sounds like exactly what we need Yes, that is fine. I don't know the time frames for the change(s) ... Should I leave it as a logout and kill -9 for now? -- Patrick Mansfield
