New iSCSI initiator with Dell TL2000

[Andrea Brancatelli]

Hello everybody.

We have a marvelous Dell Powervault TL2000 here, with the iSCSI bridge.

Our "backup server", with Bacula running on it, used to be a 9.1 machine 
and used to work ok :-)

Today we upgraded to FreeBSD 10 and tried to switch to new iscsid, but 
we weren't able to connect to the iSCSI device.

This is what we found in the TL2000 log file:


Mar 5 14:51:15 (UTC) bwcore[216]: iSCSI: Connection accepted from 10.40.3.1
Mar 5 14:51:15 (UTC) bwcore[238]: iSCSI: New session from 
iqn.1994-09.org.freebsd:arsenico.roma.schema31.it to 
iqn.1988-11.com.dell.20278e:eui.5000e111456c2002.0
Mar 5 14:51:15 (UTC) bwcore[238]: iSCSI: request to login to target 
iqn.1988-11.com.dell.20278e:eui.5000e111456c2002.0
Mar 5 14:51:15 (UTC) bwcore[238]: iSCSI: Login request with illegal stage
Mar 5 14:51:15 (UTC) bwcore[238]: iSCSI: Local socket closure
Mar 5 14:52:45 (UTC) bwcore[216]: iSCSI: Connection accepted from 10.40.3.1



The session is an un-authenticated CHAP. The problem seems to be with 
the "Login request with illegal stage".

As of now we switched back to iscontrol and everything is ok.
