[Users] question on storage and host

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?

Thanks,

Dominic
