Strange, you're unable to see the target on either of the nodes?  I'm
assuming your using the default LVM storage back-end.

Something to look at:

"sudo tgtadm --lld iscsi --op show --mode target" - Make sure your target
is present (on the cinder node)


You shouldn't *need* to do this, but to trouble-shoot you could also try:

"sudo iscsiadm -m discovery -p 192.168.150.96:3260 -t st"

followed by trying to login.

"sudo iscsiadm -m node
-T iqn.2010-10.org.openstack:volume-3ac4b027-905e-4318-a74e-2bdf94f5d887 -l"
