 IT_TPG_CREATE 3ISCSIT "Oct 1, 2008"
 NAME
it_tpg_create, it_tpg_delete, it_tpg_free - create and delete iSCSI
target portal groups
 SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag.\|.\|. ] file.\|.\|. -liscsit [ library.\|.\|. ]
#include <libiscsit.h>

int it_tpg_create(it_config_t *cfg, it_tpg_t **tpg,
 char *tpg_name, char *portal_ip_port);


int it_tpg_delete(it_config_t *cfg, it_tpg_t *tpg,
 boolean_t force););


void it_tpg_free(it_tpg_t *tpg);


 PARAMETERS
cfg

a pointer t the iSCSI configuration structure


tpg

a pointer to the it_tpg_t structure representing the target portal group


tpg_name

an identifier for the target portal group


portal_ip_port

a string containing an appropriately formatted IP address:port.
Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are permitted. This value becomes the first portal
in the target portal group. Applications can add additional values using
it_portal_create(3ISCSIT) before committing the target portal group. IPv6
addresses should be enclosed in square brackets ('[', ']').


force

boolean value indicating if the target portal group should be removed even if
it is associated with one or more targets. If not B_TRUE, the operation
will fail if the target product group is associated with a target.


 DESCRIPTION

The it_tpg_create() function allocates and creates an it_tpg_t
structure representing a new iSCSI target portal group. The new it_tpg_t
structure is added to the global tpg list (cfg_tgt_list) in the
it_config_t structure.

The it_tpg_delete() function deletes the target portal group represented
by tpg, where tpg is an existing it_tpg_t structure within
the global configuration cfg.

The it_tpg_free() function deallocates resources associated with an
it_tpg_t structure. If tpg->next is not NULL, this
function 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
it_config_commit(3ISCSIT).
 RETURN VALUES

The it_tpg_create() and it_tpg_delete() functions return 0 on
success and an error value on failure.
 ERRORS

The it_tpg_create() and it_tpg_delete() functions will fail if:
EBUSY

The portal group is associated with one or more targets.


EEXIST

The portal was already configured for another portal group associated with this
target.


EINVAL

A parameter is invalid.


ENOMEM

Resources could not be allocated.
