Comment 3 for bug 1755858

Trying a hacky POC:

1. define iscsid.socket
$ cat > /lib/systemd/system/iscsid.socket << EOF
[Unit]
Description=Open-iSCSI iscsid Socket
Documentation=man:iscsid(8) man:iscsiadm(8)

[Socket]
ListenStream=@ISCSIADM_ABSTRACT_NAMESPACE

[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target
EOF
$ systemctl enable iscsid.socket

2. remove some entries in /lib/systemd/system/open-iscsi.service
- remove iscsid from Wants=
- Remove the line ExecStartPre=/bin/systemctl --quiet is-active iscsid.service

3. disable and reload all files
$ systemctl disable iscsid
$ systemctl daemon-reload

Note: we also have still /etc/init.d/iscsid, but as long as there is a .service it doesn't matter.

=> ok - with that on a restart it doesn't start anymore on Ubuntu

Lets see if it will auto-start ...
