So, with your config:

        element_type "1,start_address=1,quantity=1"
        element_type "2,start_address=1000,quantity=24"
        element_type "3,start_address=10,quantity=5"
        element_type "4,address=500,tid=1,lun=1"
        element_type "4,address=500,tid=1,lun=2"
        element_type "4,address=500,tid=1,lun=3"
        media_home "/root/tapes" 

that would translate to:

tgtadm --lld iscsi --mode logicalunit --op update --tid 1 --lun 4 (starting each command,
and then the below --params in each command):

--params element_type "1,start_address=1,quantity=1",media_home=/root/tapes
--params element_type "2,start_address=1000,quantity=24",media_home=/root/tapes
--params element_type "3,start_address=10,quantity=5",media_home=/root/tapes
--params element_type "4,address=500,tid=1,lun=1",media_home=/root/tapes
--params element_type "4,address=500,tid=1,lun=2",media_home=/root/tapes
--params element_type "4,address=500,tid=1,lun=3",media_home=/root/tapes


Is it possible to specify multiple "media_home" parameters or is it one, and only one?
