Description alexander haensch 2016-09-15 13:02:19 UTC
targetcli is not functional if /var/target/policy is missing.

please include the directory in this ebuild

copying https://github.com/Datera/rtslib/tree/master/policy into /var/target/policy works.

I can confirm it and was hitting this bug yesterday. Same issue is reported at https://github.com/Datera/targetcli/issues/7
Comment 2 alexander haensch 2018-01-24 09:12:56 UTC
I would recommend to migrate to sys-block/targetcli-fb and dev-python/rtslib-fb because the legacy branch seems unmaintained in upstream.
Comment 3 Marko Vendelin 2018-01-24 12:03:46 UTC
Agreed. I did the migration (have to do it on live system without shutting down LIO configuration) and -fb variants seem to work well.
Comment 4 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2018-01-25 17:43:05 UTC
We can treeclean this then
Comment 5 Marko Vendelin 2018-01-25 18:11:07 UTC
Yes, I think we can close it with the recommendation of using -fb branch. For new users, it would be great to have only -fb available.
