i don`t have a solution for you - but at least some comments:
- i have read several complaints that esx iscsi is broken to some degree. there are some known incompatibilities and at least one ceo of a somewhat popular iscsi software vendor recently gave such statement. - i have read more than once that software iscsi in ESX is slow. using iscsi directly from inside a windows VM would be faster than using a virtual-disk on iscsi-storage connected via ESX iscsi-initiator. i can try giving you a pointer to some postings. - try reposting in storage->discuss , i think that forum is more iscsi related and it maybe rather an iscsi-target issue than a zfs issue. also see http://opensolaris.org/os/project/iscsitgt/ Rick McNeal is your man here :) - consider using NFS ! -> http://storagefoo.blogspot.com/2007/09/vmware-over-nfs.html This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
