How to check if a restart of open-iscsi was ok

Question

I am working on a bash script to connect a iscsi initiator to a target. After I have edited the iscsid.conf in the initiator I have to restart the open-iscsi with the command:

service open-iscsi restart

Is it a possible way to check if the restart was ok, if it was it will try to connect to target with:

iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p 10.05.02.10

Solution

You can grep for the process, if it is running it will display otherwise it won't show

command: $ ps -ef | grep iscsi

You can check the status of the above service by running sudo service open-iscsi status.If there is an option.
