Hello, I am having the same problem reported here (with any resolution) http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg02618.html and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/targetcli/+bug/1040404 My specific details: Running Ubuntu 12.10 (started on 12.04) and using kernel 3.5.0-14 (although I've tried several previous kernels with the same results) Hardware: Dual dual-core Opteron 2214HE, Arima NM461 motherboard, QLogic 2312 HBA Steps to reproduce: /qla2xxx create <WWN> Results: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/configshell/shell.py", line 983, in run_interactive self._cli_loop() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/configshell/shell.py", line 806, in _cli_loop self.run_cmdline(cmdline) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/configshell/shell.py", line 927, in run_cmdline self._execute_command(path, command, pparams, kparams) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/configshell/shell.py", line 902, in _execute_command result = target.execute_command(command, pparams, kparams) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/targetcli/ui_node.py", line 216, in execute_command return UINode.execute_command(self, command, pparams, kparams) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/targetcli/ui_node.py", line 101, in execute_command pparams, kparams) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/configshell/node.py", line 1405, in execute_command result = method(*pparams, **kparams) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/targetcli/ui_target.py", line 119, in ui_command_create target = Target(self.rtsnode, wwn, mode='create') File "/usr/lib/python2.7/rtslib/target.py", line 1176, in __init__ self._create_in_cfs_ine(mode) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/rtslib/node.py", line 71, in _create_in_cfs_ine os.mkdir(self.path) OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: '/sys/kernel/config/target/qla2xxx/<WWN>' I also tried to compile from scratch so I could try the latest git, but when I run "make deb" on any of the three components, I get an error that about python not meeting the python 2.6 dependency requirement (12.10 includes python 2.7). This is for a home lab and not that critical, but I'm in a VCP5 class and I really need this working so I can practice at home. Thanks a lot for the help!
