iSCSI Cleanup Reference

This file contains the standard iSCSI target cleanup sequence for Linux guests used in CDS MCP workflows.

Scope

• Use this reference when the user asks to clean up saved iSCSI targets on a machine.
• This is a guest-level cleanup workflow and is separate from CMC install or CDC project cleanup.

Standard Sequence

1. Log out of all current targets:

iscsiadm --mode node --logoutall=all

2. List saved node records and note the target IQN values:

iscsiadm -m node

3. Remove each target by IQN:

iscsiadm -m node -o delete -T <iqn>

4. Re-list nodes and confirm the list is empty:

iscsiadm -m node

Notes

• One IQN can appear on multiple portals; deleting by IQN removes the saved node records for that target.
• No records found is an acceptable result if the machine is already clean.
• Unless the user asks otherwise, perform the logout step before deleting saved node records.
