iscsi_discovery(8)

NAME
iscsi_discovery - discover iSCSI targets

SYNOPSIS
iscsi_discovery <IP> [-p <port>] [-d] [ -t <tcp|iser> [-f] ] [-m] [-l]

DESCRIPTION
Perform send-targets discovery to the specified IP. If a discovery record is generated, try to login to the portal using the preferred transport (-t flag specifies the requested transport type, TCP is the default). If login using a certain transport succeeds, mark the portal for automatic login (unless -m flag is used), and disconnect (unless -l flag is used).

For iSCSI discovery to work, open-iscsi services must be running. i.e. iscsid should be up, and the iSCSI modules loaded. This is best accomplished by the init.d startup script.

[-p=]port-number
    set the port number (default is 3260).

[-d]
    print debugging information.

[-t=]transport-type
    set transport (default is tcp).

[-f]
    force specific transport - disable the fallback to tcp (default is fallback enabled). force the transport specified by the argument of the -t flag.

[-m]
    manual startup - will set manual startup (default is automatic startup).

[-l]
    login - login to the new discovered nodes (default is false).
