Package: iscsitarget
Version: 1.4.20.1-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
/etc/init.d/iscsitarget stop first shuts down ietd, then unloads the module.
Unloading the module fails because the module is still in use for some reason.
Sleeping briefly after quitting the daemon allows to reliably unload the
module. See also the attached patch.
