I for some reason cannot add the ovrit node as iscsi storage. My server sits at 10.3.0.243 and you use port 3260 right? I have added it as a host fine but can not get it to detect iscsi storage.

I get: No new devices were found. This may be due to either: incorrect multipath configuration on the Host or wrong address of the iscsi target or a failure to authenticate on the target device. Please consult your Storage Administrator. Like it is not there or blocked. On ovirt node it initializes iscsi automatically right?

It adds an iscsi target on install. Or am I wrong what is this:
