I've been configuring a number of CentOS 5.5 hosts against a pair of
Dell MD3220i storage arrays.
I've got one CentOS box which I'd done target discovery against the
wrong storage array.
I'd like to clear that array's records in the CentOS box's discoverdb.
I've managed to delete the node entries, but am stumped with
discoverydb:
$ sudo iscsiadm -m discoverydb -P1
SENDTARGETS:
DiscoveryAddress: 10.1.250.218,3260
No targets found.
iSNS:
No targets found.
STATIC:
No targets found.
FIRMWARE:
No targets found.
Trying the obvious fails:
$ sudo iscsiadm -m discoverydb --op=delete
iscsiadm: Invalid operation. Operation not supported.
Googling has been fruitless so far.
Clues?
Incidentally, the node deletion recipe (I sort of stumbled into it) that
semed to work was:
$ sudo iscsiadm -m node --name='record' --value='' --op=delete
I didn't find this documented in the open-iscsi README (which is
otherwise among the bettre iSCSI docs I've found).
Where did you get the README? Was it in the tarball or in
/usr/share/docs/iscsi-initiatar-utils-$VERSION/README?
In the current README, this info should be in the iscsiadm examples (it
is also in some other parts, but I think the examples is easiest to read).
I think you want this:
-Delete discovery record. This will also delete the records for the
targets found through the discovery source.
iscsiadm -m discoverydb -t sendtargets -p 192.168.1.1:3260 -o delete
To just remove a portal/node's record you can do
Removing iSCSI portal:
iscsiadm -m node -o delete -T iqn.2005-03.com.max -p 192.168.0.4:3260
Oh yeah, so the commands I listed above will delete the entire
discovery or node record.
Did you just want to clear specific values in a record?
No. ALL evidence of the array, period. Seems to have happened my way.
You should just use
iscsiadm -m discoverydb -t sendtargets -p 192.168.1.1:3260 -o delete
for each discovery record to delete the discovery record and the node
records created from it.
This:
iscsiadm -m node --name='record' --value='' --op=delete
is actually a bug. You do not need the name and value arguments. To
delete all the node records you can just do
iscsiadm -m node -o delete
That is what is actually getting run when you ran your command. The name
and value params were getting ignored.
