[ovirt-users] iSCSI connection to a LUN - EMC CX4-120 - Login OK but no LUN

So just to keep the list updated this was resolved offline by disconnecting the iscsi session (iscsiadm -m session -u), then logging into it again.
What probably happened is that there was an existing bad session, and since it's existing, one can't login again.
Once logged out, a new good session is created.
A bad session can result from a wrong/stale /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi .
The aboce is what should be sone in this case.
If there's just a name change, restart iscsid before trying to login.

And thank you Nir for your help in helping :)
