Comment 0 for bug 850960

When starting open-iscsi with an already established session (from iscsistart), iscsid tries to reconnect it and fails to do it (wrong AuthMethod).

Before Oneiric, a bug prevented iscsid from starting, making it "work" when root is on iscsi. That's as long as you don't need to mount another lun.

In Oneiric, this bug got fixed, exposing the open-iscsi bug. The workaround for now (bug 838809) is to exit the open-iscsi init script when detecting we already have a session established from the initramfs.

Ideally, open-iscsi should be able to start, detect that a session is already established and either not touch it at all or be able to reconnect it with the right settings.
