Bug Description

According to RHEL 7 release note:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/pdf/7.0_Release_Notes/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux-7-7.0_Release_Notes-en-US.pdf

In Chapter 3 Storage, the old tgtd has been replaced by LIO system.

The LIO is now used for all of the following storage fabrics: FCoE, iSCSI, iSER, and SRP.

A direct impact of this change is openstack-block-storage cookbook. Current cookbook is configuring tgtd by default for LVM iSCSI support. It doesn't provide any alternatives. And the package referenced by this cookbook "scsi-target-utils" is no longer provided by RHEL 7 in standard distribution (only available in EPEL).

  * package[scsi-target-utils] action upgrade
    * No candidate version available for scsi-target-utils

Current cookbooks only support 6.5, so we need to stage this change in such that it does not effect current level of support for 6.5.
