[PVE-User] iscsi storage array is reporting errors when is defined trough web interface

[Martin Krpata]

Hi,
why is iscsi client (proxmox server) trying to establish second 
connection (when is defined in web interface)? Proxmox is watching 
connection to iscsi storage or forcing it? How?

What exactly do command that add iscsi storage trough web interface?
This is what i found:
* iscsi discovery
* define iscsi connection in /etc/iscsi (nodes, ...)
* /etc/init.d/open-iscsi start
* add iscsi storage to /etc/pve/storage.cfg
