I'm wanting to upgrade my v2 (Stone Burner) to v3. I understand I need to verify that the plugins I use in v2 need to be available for v3 before proceeding. I'm surprised to see no iSCSI Target plugin or LVM2 plugin. A couple questions:
1) Is that to say, v3 does not provide iSCSI target services?
2) does v3 have iSCSI initiator so I can still mount my storage located on an iSCSI target?
3) does v3 *NOT* have LVM at all? That seems very odd - thinking it might be built in and does not require a plugin?
OMV iSCSI Client and LVM?

Sometimes plugins that once were in omvextras.org are brought into core OMV. So if you are looking at omvextras.org for an LVM plugin, you won't find it - it's now a core capability - just enable the plugin.
I don't know what's happening with iscsi other than there is no omvextras.org plugin for it at all, and I do not see one in core OMV 4.x. No idea what's in OMV 3.x. I seem to remember reading something about kernel compatibility and iscsi. But since I don't use it myself, I didn't pay any attention to it. Google might turn something up.

On my 3.0.97 I have both lvm and iscsi plugins available. How are you not seeing them? They are both omv built in plugins. Maybe your /etc/apt/ is not correct?
According to this http://bugtracker.openmediavault.org/view.php?id=1756 iscsi may not be maintained anymore. Probably still works, I don't use it. I do use lvm.

If they are core plugins they are not available on omvextras.org.
If you have not yet installed OMV 3.x, you can't see that they are in core

Iscsitarget (the software) is not maintained anymore. Their dkms simply not work with kernels 4.x. The iscsi plugin has to find a new base core software which might be LIO possibly. This has been answered several times in the forum.
About lvm I don’t know why it doesn’t show in your server but is still available and maintained.

I was looking on extras *BEFORE* I attempted any upgrade (as the upgrade recommendations say to do). If they've been rolled in, how am I to know what's in the core in preparation of an upgrade?

Sorry - did some preliminary searching but must have overlooked that detail
because I haven't installed v3 yet - I was doing my upgrade due diligence. -
No problem good luck.

Iscsitarget works with omv3 using kernel 3.16. You install backports and doesn’t work anymore.
