Lets say server A has the pool with NFS shared, or iSCSI shared,

Which clients would still be active on the filesystem(s)? The ones
that were mounting it when it was on Server A?
Clients would need to explicitly change the server they're contacting
unless
that new server also took over the IP address, hostname, etc.
Does this imply that using Sun Cluster, which transfers (logical) IP
addresses, would easily provide an HA-iSCSI service? I'll admit that
I still don't understand the iSCSI naming and security schemes.
The simple answer is yes. For a complete solution the iSCSI target
project needs to support iSNS and the administrator should setup RADIUS
to enable simplified authentication administration.
