Greetings,
first of all I am not sure if this is the right place to post user
questions about targetcli. If not, please point me in the right direction.
To the problem now. I'm on opensuse 12.3 64-bit, while all kernel
modules seem included I had (as stated by documentation) to download and
build targetcli myself. Here I believe something is or went wrong. While
targetcli starts without any errors or warnings the object-tree seem
incomplete. For instance, from examples in the documentation I see when
starting targetcli it says
Using ib_srpt fabric module.
Using qla2xxx fabric module.
Using iscsi fabric module.
Using loopback fabric module.
This never happens, nor are any of those nodes available to configure.
Furthermore I believe I read, when starting targetcli it should via
rtslib fire up the modules needed, that does not happen either.
Heres an sample output..
$ targetcli
targetcli GIT_VERSION (rtslib GIT_VERSION)

I have a Qlogic FC HBA (2461) installed in this machine. The module
qla2xxx is loaded and put into target mode, but it seem targetcli failes
to detect and or communicate with it. It's like the link is broken.
Targetcli was downloaded from git yesterday and the kernel version 3.7
HBA: ISP2432: PCIe (2.5GT/s x4) @ 0000:01:00.0 hdma+ host#=11 fw=5.08.00
(9496).
$ cat /sys/module/qla2xxx/parameters/qlini_mode
disabled
Any help to resolve this would be much appreciated.
PS. The Opensuse article on the wiki is out of date and should be
updated, I'd be glad to help out with that. DS
