     ittpgtcreate,  ittpgtdelete, ittgtfree, ittpgtfree -
     create, modify and delete iSCSI Targets

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -liscsit [ library... ]
     #include 

     int ittgtcreate(itconfigt **cfg, ittgtt **tgt,
          char *tgtname);


     int ittgtsetprop(itconfigt *cfg ittgtt *tgt,
          nvlistt *proplist, nvlistt **errlist);


     int ittgtdelete(itconfigt *cfg, ittgtt *tgt,
          booleant force);


     int ittpgtcreate(itconfigt *cfg, ittgtt *tgt,
          ittpgtt **tpgt, char *tpgname, uint16t tpgttag);


     void ittpgtdelete(itconfigt *cfg, ittgtt *tgt,
          ittpgtt *tpgt);


     void ittgtfree(ittgtt *tgt);


     void ittpgtfree(ittpgtt *tpgt);


PARAMETERS
     cfg          a pointer to the iSCSI configuration structure


     tgt          a pointer to an iSCSI target structure


     tgtname     the target node  name  for  the  target  to  be
                  created.  The name must be in either IQN or EUI
                  format. If this value is NUL, a node name will
                  be generated automatically in IQN format.


     proplist     a pointer to an nvlistt containing the  target
                  properties to be set

iSCSI Management Library Functions         ittgtcreate(3ISCSIT)



     errlist      an optional pointer to an nvlistt that will be
                  used  to  store  specific  errors (if any) when
                  validating target properties


     force        a boolean value indicating if the target should
                  be  set  to offline before removing it from the
                  configuration. If not specified, the  operation
                  will  fail  if  the  target is determined to be
                  online


     tpgt         a pointer to a target portal group  tag  struc-
                  ture


     tpgtname    the name of the target portal group to be asso-
                  ciated with this target portal group tag


     tpgttag     a 16-bit numerical identifier for  this  target
                  portal  group  tag.  Valid values are 2 through
                  65535. If  tpgttag  is  '0',  ittpgtcreate()
                  will  assign  an  appropriate  tag  number.  If
                  tpgttag is != 0, and the requested tag  number
                  is unavailable, another value will be chosen.


DESCRIPTION
     The  ittgtcreate()  function  allocates  and  creates   an
     ittgtt  structure representing a new iSCSI target node. If
     tgtname is NUL, then a unique target  node  name  will  be
     generated  automatically.  Otherwise,  the value of tgtname
     will be used as the  target  node  name.  The  new  ittgtt
     structure  is added to the target list (cfgtgtlist) in the
     configuration structure.


     The ittgtsetprop() function validates  the  provided  pro-
     perty list and sets the properties for the specified target.
     If errlist is  not  NUL,  this  function  returns  detailed
     errors  for  each  property  that  failed.   The  format for
     errlist is key = property, value = error string.


     The ittgtdelete() function removes the target  represented
     by tgt from the configuration. The tgt argument is an exist-
     ing ittgtt structure within the configuration cfg.


     The  ittpgtcreate()  function  allocates  and  creates  an
     ittpgtt  structure  representing a new iSCSI target portal

     group tag. The new ittpgtt structure is added to the  tar-
     get tpgt list (tgttpgtlist) in the ittgtt structure.


     The ittpgtdelete()  function  removes  the  target  portal
     group  tag represented by tpgt, from the configuration.  The
     tpgt argument is an existing istpgtt structure within  the
     target tgt.


     The ittgtfree() function frees an ittgtt structure.   If
     tgt->next is not NUL, this function frees all structures in
     the list.


     The ittpgtfree()  function  deallocates  resources  of  an
     ittpgtt  structure.  If tpgt->next is not NUL, this func-
     tion frees all members of the list.


     Configuration changes as a result of these functions are not
     instantiated  until  the modified configuration is committed
     by calling itconfigcommit(3ISCSIT).


     Target nvlist properties are as follows:



        nvlist Key        Type                 Valid Values
     
     targetchapuser     string      any string, or none to remove
     targetchapsecret   string      string of at  least  12  characters
                                    but  not  more than 255 characters.
                                    secret will be base64 encoded  when
                                    stored.
     alias              string      any string or none to remove
     auth               string      radius, chap, or none


RETURN VALUES
     The  ittgtcreate(),   ittgtsetprop(),   ittgtdelete(),
     ittpgtcreate(), and ittpgtdelete() functions return 0 on
     success and an error value on failure.

ERORS
     The  ittgtcreate(),   ittgtsetprop(),   ittgtdelete(),
     ittpgtcreate(),  and  ittpgtdelete() functions will fail
     if:

     E2BIG     All tag numbers are already in use.

     EBUSY     The target is online.


     EXIST    The requested target node name is already  config-
               ured.


     EINVAL    A parameter or property is invalid.


     ENOMEM    Resources could not be allocated.
