iscsi is not a supported fabric on rhel/centos 6. Only FCoE uses
LIO. scsi-target-utils (tgt) is the supported iscsi target on rhel6.
rhel7 uses LIO for both, as does Fedora.

Hi Andy,
I see LIO is a technology preview on rhel 6 but I'm not looking for
official support, just play with it :)
that said I have a custom kernel compiled from vanilla so if we
esclude some problem with
udev or other userspace services only kernel modules and targetcli is
involved in this configuration.
I hope someone that maintain this module have some time to help me to
get it running otherwise
I will try to use scst (actually I compiled and installed it but
still have to configure it).
My final goal is to have a litttle lab that let me write an
integration module for my failover cluster
manager ( https://code.google.com/p/back-to-work/ ). I need to
implement scsi fencing without
destroying a production server connected to a real SAN :P

Maybe I misunderstood your statement. Are you saying that
the targetcli I'm using (fb16) does not support iscsi fabric?
In this case I will try to use the git version.
Luigi
got it working :D
# targetcli
targetcli shell version 2.1.fb37

I installed the last version from
https://fedorahosted.org/releases/t/a/targetcli-fb/
and fortunally I had python2.7 installed in /usr/local (I don't
remember why I installed it :D)
builded and installed using python2.7
Thanks Andy for your hint and excuse me if I seemed stubborn :)
Thank to Martin too for his support!
regards
Luigi
