--- Comment #8 from Lee Duncan
... we hereby clarify that we do not support storage technology setups where the storage daemons are being run from the storage it maintains itself. In other words: a storage daemon backing the root file system cannot be stored on the root file system itself.
This means that the iscsid that starts at initd time must continue to run during the transition from initrd to full running mode, and that iscsid can only be stopped when the OS stops and drops back to the initrd state, where the tangle that is the root OS mount can be unwound. In the case of iscsi, it is not quite as bad as all this, because the iscsi daemon (iscsid) is only needed to handle errors, not for storage access under normal conditions. So a restart of iscsid in our case means there is no error handling/recovery, but it does not mean to access to the root disc under normal conditions. Until our systemd and initrd support the initrd images running until OS shutdown time, we may have to live with this temporary loss of error handling during the initrd to full OS transition. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
