[ipxe-devel] RFE: update error page for LIO

[Alexander Todorov]

Hi guys,
one of your error pages needs updating. Not sure how can I make this happen.


On http://ipxe.org/err/1d7045 there's this paragraph:

Note that the default configuration when Linux is the target is for the disk to 
be LUN 1. For example, use 
“iscsi:iscsi.example.com:::1:iqn.1992-01.com.example.iscsi:target” instead of 
“iscsi:iscsi.example.com::::iqn.1992-01.com.example.iscsi:target”. On your Linux 
iSCSI target, “tgtadm –lld iscsi –op show –mode target” will show you details of 
each target.


This all works great when the target system uses tgtd for example. But when it 
uses LIO (targetcli) then the default LUN is 0 not 1. I've just spent an hour 
trying to figure out why stuff doesn't work when I moved my iSCSI target onto 
newer system. Changing :1: for :0: as the LUN number in the above syntax worked 
like a charm.

I propose to append the following text to this page:

Note: If your target is Linux-IO the default LUN number is 0 instead of 1!
