Name        : iscsi-initiator-utils
Product     : Fedora 16
Version     : 6.2.0.872
Release     : 16.fc16
URL         : http://www.open-iscsi.org
Summary     : iSCSI daemon and utility programs
Description :
The iscsi package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol,
as well as the utility programs used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol
for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over Internet
Protocol networks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This updates fixes three initialization problems:

- If network.service instead of NetworkManager was used, the iscsi service was getting run before the network was setup, and would fail to login to targets (BZ#747479).
- If the NetworkManager was used, the iscsi service would sometimes start before the network was fully setup and would fail to login to targets.
- If there are no targets setup then "service iscsi start" and "service iscsid start" report errors. This can cause other services like vdsm to fail (BZ#786174).
