            Bug ID: 204129
           Summary: iscsictl doesn't list discovered targets
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: amvandemore at gmail.com

Currently there is no method to list out possible targets to connect to:

root at bhyve1:~ # iscsictl -d 10.0.0.2
iscsictl: -L and -d and mutually exclusive

I see others wanting this functionality, see [1].

And here where it's sort of replied to as "Works as intended", see [2].

I don't use Windows or VMware but XenServer allows you to choose when setting
up an SR.  VMware docs indicate this functionality is available though.  See
[3]

Bulk connecting to all is not just undesirable, it's bad.

Unfortunately, iscontrol(which has the functionality) can't be used as a work
around:

root at bhyve1:~ # kldload iscsi_initiator
kldload: an error occurred while loading the module. Please check dmesg(8) for
more details.
