Public bug reported:

In support-matrix, it says that vmware driver supports chap authentication over iscsi.
In fact, vmware driver doesn't pass  authentication info to vSphere API.
So the function doesn't work.


Code: 
    def _iscsi_add_send_target_host(self, storage_system_mor, hba_device,
                                    target_portal):
        """Adds the iscsi host to send target host list."""
        client_factory = self._session.vim.client.factory
        send_tgt = client_factory.create('ns0:HostInternetScsiHbaSendTarget')
        (send_tgt.address, send_tgt.port) = target_portal.split(':')
        LOG.debug("Adding iSCSI host %s to send targets", send_tgt.address)
        self._session._call_method(
            self._session.vim, "AddInternetScsiSendTargets",
            storage_system_mor, iScsiHbaDevice=hba_device, targets=[send_tgt])
