Well, the cisco linux-iscsi initiator works just fine with it, so I don't think it's an issue with the NetApp and linux. With the linux-iscsi initiator, /proc/scsi/scsi looks like this: Host: scsi4 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: NETAPP Model: LUN Rev: 0.2 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 04 With the pyx initiator, it looks like this: Host: scsi6 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: NETAPP Model: LUN Rev: 0.2 Type: Unknown ANSI SCSI revision: 04 > It would certainly be interesting to see with Ethereal what is in the > INQUIRY response data that Linux could possibly not support. :-) Hrm...don't have anything setup to do that ATM, but I could probably get something going... > > Also, are you planning on updating the docs for the user tools at all? > > There are several steps missing in the current README, and the man > > page lists some parameters incorrectly and misses other entirely. > > > > There are a couple of things I would like to be accomplished in the near > feature for the user tools: > > 1) Complete documentation of iSCSI Channel Management optertions by way > of updated initiator-ctl manual pages and basic HOWTO for iSCSI Logical > Unit Management Screnarios for iSCSI SAN Adminstitrators. > 2) Initial release of authentication daemon using CHAP, with eventual > support for RFC 3720 defined SRP. > 3) Work towards supporting the Internet Storage Naming Service (iSNS) > standard and assoicated open source implementations for discovery and > device information for iSCSI Target Nodes and other storage resources. And for the kernel side, it looks like: 1) /proc -> sysfs conversion 2) ioctl -> sysfs conversion Both of which include integration of the iscsi transport class discussed on this list Out of curiousity, what does this initiator offer that the linux-iscsi initiator doesn't? (http://linux-iscsi.sourceforge.net/) I'm just curious what you see as advantages this implementation has. Regards, -- AJ Lewis Voice: 612-638-0500 Red Hat Inc.
