I get the following error when I try to add iSCSI target in Storage section:

Error: error: no iscsi support - please install open-iscsi


Do we have to install anything with the default install of Proxmox?

Thanks
 
The default installation includes that packages. So how did you install?

Anyways, the error message is quite obvious - simply do:

# apt-get install open-iscsi
 
Yes this was an update from 1.4 to 1.5. Here is what I did:

apt-get install open-iscsi

Still getting the error. Do I need to reboot the system?


Just wanted to make sure.
