Number of unexpected events
received in session offline state
D The number of session state machine
unexpected events received while in the
offline state. The unexpected events will be
ignored, and will not impact operations. If this
value is non-zero, an investigation into the
cause of the unexpected events should be
initiated.
Number of Task Management
commands sent
I The number of Task Management commands
sent by all sessions.
Number of Task Management
commands failed
D/T The number of Task Management commands
that failed. The failures could be due to
unavailable resources or target connectivity
problems.
Number of login failures due to
not configuring CHAP secret
D The number of CHAP authentication
configuration errors. CHAP authentication
was requested and the initiator secret had not
been configured, or had not been correctly
configured, by the administrator.
Number of times there was no
connection associated with an
authentication response
D/C The number of times a connection has been
closed, or logged out, for which the iradd
daemon has responded with an authentication
response using CHAP.
Number of times the connection
signature stamp did not match
with the authentication response
I The number of times a connection has been
closed, or logged out, but the associated
structures are not freed, for which the iradd
daemon has responded with an authentication
response using CHAP.
Number of times the target sent
a "bad next stage" during login
negotiation
T The number of times the target sent a "bad
next stage" during login negotiation. A
non-zero value indicates problems were
experienced during a login attempt to an
iSCSI target. These would typically indicate
protocol violations and would not be seen with
conforming targets.
Number of login context
allocation failures
D The number of times the iSCSI login context
allocation has failed. The failures could be
due to unavailable resources.
Number of unsolicited NOP-INs
sent by the target
I The total number of unsolicited NOP-IN
PDUs received from the target.
