The proper way to handle this in systemd is to start > iscsid if an iscsi block device appears. We cannot do this, because iscsid is needed to find the iscsi device. The iscsid daemon and the kernel modules work together to implement the iscsi protocol. Basically, to do discovery and log into disks, iscsid will send/recv iscsi packets through the iscsi kernel modules. iscsid then parses the packets and does things like CHAP and the iscsi parameter negotiation. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
