Hello,
I'm trying to diagnose what has gone wrong with Fedora 29 in our gate devstack test; it seems there is a problem with the iscsi setup and consequently the volume based tempest tests all fail. AFAICS we end up with nova hitting parsing errors inside os_brick's iscsi querying routines; so it seems whatever error path we've hit is outside the usual as it's made it pretty far down the stack.
I have a rather haphazard bug report going on at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/os-brick/+bug/1814849
as I've tried to trace it down. At this point, it's exceeding the abilities of my cinder/nova/lvm/iscsi/how-this-all-hangs-together knowledge.
The final comment there has a link the devstack logs and a few bits and pieces of gleaned off the host (which I have on hold and can examine) which is hopefully useful to someone skilled in the art.
I'm hoping ultimately it's a rather simple case of a missing package or config option; I would greatly appreciate any input so we can get this test stable.
Thanks,

Hi Ian, Well, the system from the pastebin [1] doesn't look too good. DB and LIO are out of sync. You can see that the database says that there must be 3 exports and maps available, yet you only see 1 in LIO. It is werid that there are things missing from the logs: In method _get_connection_devices we have: LOG.debug('Getting connected devices for (ips,iqns,luns)=%s', 1 ips_iqns_luns) nodes = self._get_iscsi_nodes() And we can see the message in the logs [2], but then we don't see the call to iscsiadm that happens as the first instruction in _get_iscsi_nodes: out, err = self._execute('iscsiadm', '-m', 'node', run_as_root=True, root_helper=self._root_helper, check_exit_code=False) And we only see the error coming from parsing the output of that command that is not logged. I believe Matthew is right in his assessment, the problem is the output from "iscsiadm -m node", there is a missing space between the first 2 columns in the output [4]. This looks like an issue in Open iSCSI, not in OS-Brick, Cinder, or Nova. And checking their code, it looks like this is the patch that fixes it [5], so it needs to be added to F29 iscsi-initiator-utils package. Cheers, Gorka.
