I installed it from the gitrepo. I think it seems to be a python version issue...Seems like rtslib-fb requires python >= 2.7. Is that correct?

I installed targetd but fail to get a connection from the server, the

client script return the following:

...

running /usr/bin/targetd just returns without printing anything, I

cannot find a targetd process.

Is this is the right way to run this?

CentOS 6.5 rtslib.fb2.1.47 3.14.2-1.el6.elrepo.x86_6

Hi Moussa,

You installed targetd from an rpm, or what exactly?

Thanks -- Andy

Which distribution do you recommend?

Yes I think it is. That's one of many reasons why targetd won't work on RHEL 6, but it would be nice if it failed in a more informative way.

Thanks. I had been struggling with recent versions of rtslib with openstack icehouse as well. Can't wait for centos7...

Tgtadm does not cut it for the level of IOPS we are trying to push hence our work with LIO.

Thank you

I recommend Fedora 20 or RHEL/CentOS 7, when released. -- Andy
