Nir,
we have added 2 more nics to each virtualization host. In order to get
this working, I had to add an after_network_setup hook. The shell script
simply does "/sbin/iscsiadm -m node -L all", to get the extra targets
login after reboot.
I looked in the engine table storage_server_connections and found that only
the iscsi targets selected during the original storage domain create were
present. If ovirt-engine added rows here, then most of the work would
have been done.
I say mostly, because the Dell MD3200i did not return exactly the correct
portal target values. The device has 2 controllers, with 4 nics each.
Controller 0, ports 0,1,2,3 uses portal target 1. Controller 1, the
ports uses portal target 2. After iscsiadm discovery, the portal targets
for ports 1,2,3 were all 1. Ports 0 had targets 1 and 2, correctly. I
adjusted the values saved on the filesystem, and login/logoff works fine.

First of all, thank you for your time. I must apologize that in
this
install, I am using RHEV 3.4.5. I will try to reproduce this on an ovirt
install. I just need to create some paths to iscsi targets.
1. This configuration has 2 physical hosts, Dell PE-R715 servers, with a
Dell PowerVault MD3200i iSCSI data storage domain. The EM3 nic was the
original link. EM4 was the new connection to storage.
2. From the manager interface, I selected Storage tab, then the
kvm5DataDomain, then edit. From the popup, I added the IP address under
Discovery Targets, then clicked the Discover button. Then, clicked the
login arrow on the new targets discovered.
I have attached the engine and vdsm logs. I was working on this at about
11:40am Feb 4th.
When setting the host in maintenance mode, then reboot, and Activate, the
new paths do not get a login.
Thanks,
Paul
