Hi,

What operation are you trying to do?  What is the failure you are
seeing?

If you are creating a volume from image using the LVM backend, then
there won't be an iSCSI target/portal for the operation.

If you are attaching the volume to a nova instance and it's failing,
there should be an error either on the cinder volume logs or the nova
compute logs that would help figure out the issue.

Cheers,
Gorka.
