Upon looking further. I found out that the target does indeed support

However, the symptoms remains the same. When attempting

an error?

No.
Ok.

The ErrorRecoveryLevel parameter needs to be explicitly set on a per
TargetName+TargetPortalGroupTag basis in order to allow an initiator to
negotiate ErrorRecoveryLevel > 0.

This is set from within targetcli /iscsi/$IQN/$TPGT/ context, using:
set parameter ErrorRecoveryLevel=2

Done this and retried login. Target still refuses to ERL>0.

/iscsi/iqn.20...a7cd9852/tpg1> set parameter ErrorRecoveryLevel=2
Parameter ErrorRecoveryLevel is now '2'.

/iscsi/iqn.20...a7cd9852/tpg1> pwd
/iscsi/iqn.2003-01.org.linux-iscsi.localhost.x8664:sn.5c3da7cd9852/tpg1
/iscsi/iqn.20...a7cd9852/tpg1>

did a saveconfig & exit , thereafter ...

/iscsi/iqn.20...a7cd9852/tpg1> get parameter ErrorRecoveryLevel
ErrorRecoveryLevel=2

This is the login (send)

ErrorRecoveryLevel=0 <------------- Target response back as 0.

The the doubt I have is the login responds as ERL=0, and on the other hand the targetcli is set with ERL=2. Which will take precedence? I can see that the ERL=0, for the mesg i get. Even after setting ERL=2 in targetcli the ERL is clearly at 0.
Am I missing something? What else is required for LIO to move to ERL>0.

Note that ErrorRecoveryLevel=0 is enforced by default to avoid certain
initiators that attempt to negotiate ErrorRecoveryLevel>1, but end up
(historically) violating the connection recovery state machine, causing
themselves to eventually take their LUNs offline.

Below is the iscsi-initiator I am using. Does LIO enforce ERL=0 for this ?

Hi Nicholas,

I am trying to negotiate "ErrorRecoveryLevel=1".  At the time of login.
However, the response for target comes back always as
"ErrorRecoveyLevel=0".
I am assuming target is not supporting ERL>0. Is my observation correct ?

Thanks,
Arshad
