Description Tom Ribbens 2010-10-12 23:22:54 UTC

In combination of using iscsitarget and VMWare ESXi4, all my VM's freeze up. When I tried rebooting the complete VMWare server, It didn't recognize my storage anymore. After a restart of ietd, the storage was found again.

I got these messages in /var/log/messages:

Some googling has led me to believe this is the issue that is fixed in 1.4.20 of iscsitarget (Fixed compliance issues around ABORT TASK/ABORT TASK SET). An update to the newest version is probably the best resolution.

Indeed, adjusting severity as a workaround exists; restarting iscsi might not be possible in every setup though that's why I leave it at "major".
base-system, please adjust as needed.

This should be done with 1.4.20.2.  Thanks for your patience and support.  It is currently hard masked as I do not have the hardware.  Please test and report back.
