I have attempted to reproduce the bug without success on another stable iscsi target / unstable iscsi initiator.
I still have access to the machines that are failing, for comparison purposes. for starters, the output of: iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.faikvm:storage.lun1" --portal "<TARGET_IP>:3260" on both initiator machines differs only by the IP of the target. yet logout and login look like: qemuhost:/disk1/VMs# iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.faikvm:storage.lun1" --portal "10.100.0.197:3260" --login Logging in to [iface: default, target: iqn.2001-04.com.faikvm:storage.lun1, portal: 10.100.0.197,3260] iscsiadm: Could not login to [iface: default, target: iqn.2001-04.com.faikvm:storage.lun1, portal: 10.100.0.197,3260]: iscsiadm: initiator reported error (15 - already exists) qemuhost:/disk1/VMs# iscsiadm -m node --targetname "iqn.2001-04.com.faikvm:storage.lun1" --portal "10.100.0.197:3260" --logout iscsiadm: could not read session targetname: 5 iscsiadm: could not find session info for session1 qemuhost:/disk1/VMs# on one host, with the other host performing as expected. I'm following a modified form of http://www.howtoforge.com/using-iscsi-on-debian-lenny-initiator-and-target , if it helps.
