The original impetus for me to re-write the code in virStorageBackendISCSIMakeLUN() was because I thought the open-iscsi people had changed the output of iscsiadm --mode session -r $session -P 3. However, that's not what actually happened. What actually happened is that the sysfs files that export this information changed somewhere between 2.6.21 and 2.6.24 (which is what I was using at the time). So, the code you point to above in open-iscsi tools *also* doesn't work. That code is expecting the block devices to look like block:sdd, which is what you have in your 2.6.21 kernel; but in later kernels, it no longer looks like that. All that being said, the less we have to depend on parsing, and the more we can poke around sysfs and get values, the better. So in that sense, the change was for the better. I've attached a patch which seems to do the right thing on my 2.6.25 based machine; can you test it on 2.6.21 and see if it works? Chris Lalancette
