.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
iscsi\-swp is a utility to get or set the software write protect on an iSCSI LUN\&.
.SH "ISCSI PORTAL URL FORMAT"
.PP
iSCSI portal format is \*(Aqiscsi://[[%]@][:]\*(Aq
.PP
Username and password are only required if the target requires CHAP authentication\&. Optionally you can specify the username and password via the environment variables LIBISCSI_CHAP_USERNAME and LIBISCSI_CHAP_PASSWORD\&.
.PP
Host can be specified either as a hostname, an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address\&. Examples:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
iscsi://192\&.0\&.2\&.1
iscsi://[2001:DB8::1]:3261
iscsi://ronnie%password@iscsi\&.example\&.com
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
Port is the TCP port on the target to connect to\&. Default is 3260\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
\-i \-\-initiator\-name=
.RS 4
This specifies the initiator\-name that iscsi\-ls will use when logging in to the target\&.
.sp
The default name is \*(Aqiqn\&.2007\-10\&.com\&.github:sahlberg:libiscsi:iscsi\-ls\*(Aq but you can use this argument to override this\&. This is mainly needed for cases where the target is configured with access\-control to only allow discovery logins from known initiator\-names\&.
.RE
.PP
\-s \-\-swp {on|off}
.RS 4
By default iscsi\-swp will only print the current setting of the software write protect bit\&. By using this argument iscsi\-swp will also try to set/clear the flag on the target LUN\&.
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
iscsi\-swp iscsi://127\&.0\&.0\&.1/iqn\&.ronnie\&.test/1
SWP:0
iscsi\-swp iscsi://127\&.0\&.0\&.1/iqn\&.ronnie\&.test/1 \-\-swp on
SWP:0
Turning SWP ON
iscsi\-swp iscsi://127\&.0\&.0\&.1/iqn\&.ronnie\&.test/1 \-\-swp off
SWP:0
Turning SWP OFF
