1.94.1. RHBA-2009:1099: bug fix update
Note
This update has already been released (prior to the GA of this release) as errata
RHBA-2009:1099
595
An updated iscsi-initiator-utils package that fixes a bug is now available.
The iscsi-initiator-utils package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol, as well as the utility
programs used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol for distributed disk access using SCSI commands
sent over Internet Protocol networks.
This updated iscsi-initiator-utils package fixes the following bug:
• attempting to log in to targets which used the iSCSI protocol's login redirect feature failed due to a
coding error in the IPv6 address parser. This bug has been fixed in this updated package so that
address parsing succeeds as expected, and logging in to targets over IPv6 is once again possible.
(

)
All users using IPv6 with LUN targets which employ login redirect, such as EqualLogic targets, should
upgrade to this updated package, which resolves this issue.
1.94.2. RHBA-2009:1368: bug fix update
An updated iscsi-initiator-utils package that fixes various bugs and adds support for Chelsio and
Broadcom iSCSI cards is now available
The iscsi package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol, as well as the utility programs
used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over
Internet Protocol networks.
Bugs fixed and enhancements added in this updated package include:
• iscsi-initiator-utils now includes support for Broadcom bnx2 and bnx2x network interface cards.

• iscsi-initiator-utils has been rebased to upstream version 2.0-870. Among many other changes,
this version supports the offload feature of Broadcom and Chelsio cards. Refer to the changelog
included in the package for a full list of bug fixes and enhancements in this version. Section 5.1.2
of /usr/share/docs/iscsi-initiator-utils-$version/README contains instructions to set up ifaces for use
with offload cards. (

• the iscsi-initiator-utils packages place files in the /etc/iscsi directory but previously, did not list that
directory for creation. The /etc/iscsi directory would therefore be created during the installation
process, but would remain unowned. /etc/iscsi is now listed for creation and are therefore owned by
iscsi-initiator-utils. (

• when a user-space iSCSI tool invokes an option that is not supported in the kernel, the tool returns
"Iferror -38". Previously, this error message was presented to users and could mislead them to
