All of the guides that I’m finding for redhat’s iser are based on tgtd, but RHEL7 is now defaulting to targetcli.
For example, the document:
HowTo Configure iSER Transport (iSCSI over RDMA) https://community.mellanox.com/s/article/howto-configure-tgt-enabled-with-iser-transport-for-rhel (which is: how to configure set tgt ISCSI client and target to work in iSER transport mode for RHEL/Fedora/CentOS distribution.)
as well as the official RHEL7 Storage Administration guide are based on tgtd.
Any advice on how to setup a block storage backed iser/iscsi server/client share?
The tgtd daemon, aka scsi-target-utils, is still available via EPEL Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) :: Fedora Docs for RHEL 7
For LIO/targetcli “how-to”, please take a look in this wiki:

For iSER:
