RHBA-2007:0305 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated iscsi-initiator-utils packages that fix various bugs are now
available.

Description

The iscsi-initiator-utils package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI
protocol, as well as the utility programs used to manage it.

Bugs fixed in these updated packages include:

• "service iscsi reload" caused the log to fill up with error messages, and

multiple sessions would be created.

• If a session was not established, iscsi-ls would hang.
• The location of iscsi logging info was not properly documented in the README.

Users are advised to upgrade to these updated iscsi-initiator-utils packages,
which resolve these issues.
