A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of
the IETF.


        Title           : The IPv4 DHCP Options for the Internet Storage
Name 
                          Service
        Author(s)       : C. Monia, J. Tseng, K. Gibbons
        Filename        : draft-ietf-dhc-isnsoption-09.txt,.pdf
        Pages           : 14
        Date            : 2003-9-15
        
This document describes the DHCP option to allow Internet Storage
Name Service (iSNS) clients to automatically discover the location
of the iSNS server through the use of DHCP for IPv4. iSNS provides
discovery and management capabilities for Internet SCSI (iSCSI) and
Internet Fibre Channel Protocol (iFCP) storage devices in an
enterprise-scale IP storage network.  iSNS provides intelligent
storage management services comparable to those found in Fibre
Channel networks, allowing a commodity IP network to function in a
similar capacity as a storage area network.

Send a message to:
        mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
        "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-isnsoption-09.txt".
        
NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
        MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
        feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
        command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
        a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
        exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
        "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
        up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
        how to manipulate these messages.
                
                
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Provide the name and values for the ASC/ASCQ code, and refer to
SPC3 as the authority where it is defined.  As I said earlier,
we can be reasonably confident that the values will be stable.

So mentioning that the codes exists and referring the reader to SPC3 is
acceptable? If yes I can put that statement in and we are done.

The concern on the other side is that it's hard to make the connection
between
these iSCSI implicit termination cases and the specific ASC/ASCQ code that's
been
defined.  I'm not suggesting a "MUST" requirement but rather a statement
that
this ASC/ASCQ exists and is appropriate for these cases.  While T10 controls
both the existence and appropriateness of this ASC/ASCQ, I think both are
likely to be stable.


Thanks,

Forwarding to Steve Bellovin.
Since it is his comment that we are trying to address, we need to get his

Everyone,

Congratulations - if you received this message, you
have been successfully subscribed to the new IETF IP
Storage WG mailing list, ips@ietf.org.  This is the
new location of the list, and replaces the CMU list.

You do not need to do anything in order to continue
receiving WG email.  If you wish to remove yourself from
the list, send email to ips-request@ietf.org.  Posting
to this list is restricted to list members only as an
anti-spam measure - posts from non-members will be held for
approval, but posts that are not spam will be approved.
Also, this list has a message length limitation that will
reject large messages - instead
of sending attachments to the list, please post them to a
web site and send a URL to the list.

The new location of the email list archives is

ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf-mail-archive/ips/

This contains all of the email from the CMU list.  The
web archives at ietf.org will initially contain only
messages sent to the new list at ietf.org.

Thanks,
--David and Elizabeth (IPS WG co-chairs)

Content-Type: text/plain

I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during discovery
phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I misunderstanding
something?
 
3.3 iSCSI Session Types
  iSCSI defines two types of sessions:
  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session.
  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target
     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the
     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the
     session". All other requests MUST be rejected.
     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in
     the login command.
 
 
Eddy

[Ips] NOP during Discovery






I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during 
discovery phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I 
misunderstanding something?
 
3.3 iSCSI Session Types
  iSCSI defines two types of sessions:
  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session.
  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target
     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the
     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the
     session". All other requests MUST be rejected.
     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in
     the login command.
 
 
Eddy

Thanks
 
Would it work to just use SendTargets=<nothing> instead of NOP? If there is
a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the target
name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the target would
still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength.
 
If so, can you talk that person into that?
 
Eddy

Eddy,

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat 
richer in that in a "storage router" NOP might reach the end-point while 
SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal about 
NOP.

RE: [Ips] NOP during Discovery






Thanks
 
Would it work to just use SendTargets=<nothing> instead of NOP? If there 
is a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the 
target name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the target 
would still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength.
 
If so, can you talk that person into that?
 
Eddy

It is not allowed in discovery - There was a long discussion with one 
party insisting on having NOP as a way of keeping the discovery session 
alive. 
Discovery being only a lightweight location mechanism it was decided that 
it is  not worth having it as a permanent alternative for a management 
interface.

[Ips] NOP during Discovery
 


 
 




I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during 
discovery phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I 
misunderstanding something? 
  
3.3 iSCSI Session Types 
  iSCSI defines two types of sessions: 
  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session. 
  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target 
     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the 
     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the 
     session". All other requests MUST be rejected. 
     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in 
     the login command. 
  
  
Eddy

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: SCSI Command Ordering Considerations with iSCSI
	Author(s)	: M. Chadalapaka, R. Elliott
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ips-command-ordering-01.txt,.pdf
	Pages		: 20
	Date		: 2003-9-22
	
iSCSI is a SCSI transport protocol designed to run on top of 
TCP. The iSCSI session abstraction is equivalent to the SCSI I_T 
nexus, and the iSCSI session provides an ordered command 
delivery from the SCSI initiator to the SCSI target.  This 
document goes into the design considerations that led to the 
iSCSI session model as it is defined today, relates the SCSI 
command ordering features defined in T10 specifications to the
iSCSI concepts, and finally provides guidance to system 
designers on how true command ordering solutions can be built 
based on iSCSI.

Sorry for the intrusion of administrivia; with luck this will
be the only message I need to send on this topic ...

As part of transferring the IPS mailing list to IETF, new mailing
list passwords were assigned to everyone - your password is
needed to unsubscribe from the list, and to change options (e.g.,
digests vs. individual messages).  To get your password, go
to: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ips , enter your
email address in the bottom box at the bottom of the page (in
the Ips Subscribers section), click the "Edit Options" button
and then click the "Email My Password To Me" button on the next
page.  The IETF email list manager will automatically send monthly
reminders of list passwords to everyone, so if you don't have
anything that needs to be done now, you don't need to do anything.

There are about ten email addresses transferred from the CMU
list that have bounced all messages sent to them.  IF you have
one of these addresses, AND you have found this message (e.g.,
in the list archive), AND your address is now accepting email,
AND you'd like to receive IPS list email again, THEN follow the
above instructions to get your password which will enable
you to turn off the "Disable mail delivery" option (further
down the same page as the "Email My Password To Me" button).

At least one list member has a spam filter that demands a response
from a human when email from an unknown address arrives.  The
postmaster for that member has been sent a note asking the postmaster
to ask the member to update his/her whitelist to allow email through.
While it's a courtesy to do so, those who post to this list
should not feel obligated to respond to clueless spam filters.

Speaking of clueless spam filters, at least one company has
its email firewall configured to reject Internet-Draft announcements
(the firewall appears to be configured to reject the MIME
type used by those announcements).  The postmaster for the
company involved has been sent a note that their email firewall
is being overly aggressive.  If you're not getting Internet-Draft
announcements (there was one sent to the IPS list this afternoon,
just before 3pm Eastern time), you might want to check with
your postmaster about this.

Thanks,
--David

Hi
 
I am new to RDMA ISCSI. Is there any standars exist for iscsi RDMA.

Subject: RE: [Ips] NOP during Discovery



Eddy, 

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat
richer in that in a "storage router" NOP might reach the end-point while
SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal about
NOP.

RE: [Ips] NOP during Discovery

	




Thanks 

  


Would it work to just use SendTargets=<nothing> instead of NOP? If there is
a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the target
name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the target would
still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength. 


  


If so, can you talk that person into that? 


  


Eddy

It is not allowed in discovery - There was a long discussion with one party
insisting on having NOP as a way of keeping the discovery session alive. 
Discovery being only a lightweight location mechanism it was decided that it
is  not worth having it as a permanent alternative for a management
interface.

[Ips] NOP during Discovery

  





  	 





I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during discovery
phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I misunderstanding
something? 


  


3.3 iSCSI Session Types 


  iSCSI defines two types of sessions: 


  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session. 


  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target 


     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the 


     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the 


     session". All other requests MUST be rejected. 


     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in 


     the login command.

Eddy, 

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat 
richer in that in a "storage router" NOP might reach the end-point while 
SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal about 
NOP.

Thanks 
  
Would it work to just use SendTargets=<nothing> instead of NOP? If there 
is a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the 
target name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the target 
would still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength. 
  
If so, can you talk that person into that?

It is not allowed in discovery - There was a long discussion with one 
party insisting on having NOP as a way of keeping the discovery session 
alive. 
Discovery being only a lightweight location mechanism it was decided that 
it is  not worth having it as a permanent alternative for a management 
interface.

[Ips] NOP during Discovery
  


  
 




I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during 
discovery phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I 
misunderstanding something? 
  
3.3 iSCSI Session Types 
  iSCSI defines two types of sessions: 
  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session. 
  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target 
     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the 
     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the 
     session". All other requests MUST be rejected. 
     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in 
     the login command.

Hi,
 
I would like to get some opinions and thoughts on mapping FC Zone Server DB
to iSNS DB in a single or multiple fabrics, mixed protocol SAN switches 
environment.
 
Based on my understanding of the FC-GS, FC-SW, and the iSNS draft, FC zone 
objects are mapped to iSNS objects as follow: 
 
  FC zone maps to iSNS DD (Discovery Domain).
  FC zone set maps to iSNS DD Set.
  FC fabric maps to iSNS Network Entity.
 
Assume we have a multi-fabric SAN with mixed FC and iSCSI switches,
and FC/iSCSI gateways.
We want to create a central iSNS database to store all the devices, 
where some of the devices are exported from the FC zone DBs, and some 
are registered from the iSNS capable clients (most likely iSCSI devices).  
With the central iSNS server, iSNS capable management stations now 
have a full view of the whole multi-fabric SAN. 
 
My questions are:
 
1. Would iSNS serve well for the above application?
2. When FC Zone DBs are merged or segmented, how the FC Zone DBs
    are synchronized with the iSNS DB is an implementation issue, but 
    has anybody written any guideline or paper on this?
    If not, would this subject be a good ietf draft/rfc candidate?
3. Is there any such product on the market from the major SAN switch 
    manufacturers (that exports and maps FC Zone DB to iSNS server)?
 
Thanks,
Dan

Dan,

 

Here are my responses:

 

1)       Yes, as alluded to in the iSNS draft.  You understood it well.

2)       You are welcome to write a paper or RFC if you desire.  I am
willing to help you out.

3)       Yes.

 

Regards,

Josh

Eddy,=20

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat
richer in that in a "storage router" NOP might reach the end-point while
SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal
about NOP.=20

Thanks=20

 =20

Would it work to just use SendTargets=3D<nothing> instead of NOP? If =
there
is a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the
target name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the
target would still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength.=20

 =20

If so, can you talk that person into that?=20

It is not allowed in discovery - There was a long discussion with one
party insisting on having NOP as a way of keeping the discovery session
alive.=20
Discovery being only a lightweight location mechanism it was decided
that it is  not worth having it as a permanent alternative for a
management interface.=20

I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during
discovery phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I
misunderstanding something?=20

3.3 iSCSI Session Types=20

  iSCSI defines two types of sessions:=20

  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session.=20

  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target=20

     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the=20

     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the=20

     session". All other requests MUST be rejected.=20

     The session type is defined during login with key=3Dvalue parameter
in=20

     the login command.=20

Joshua,
 
Thanks.  
 
Regardinig #2, I would be interested in writing a paper after I have explored 
more on the interoperability issues in bridging FC zones to iSNS, will
definitely need more of your help.  I don't believe this qualifies for IETF draft 
or RFC, but having a more well defined rules in mapping FC zones to iSNS 
will simplify the job of managing a mixed FC/iSCSI SAN.

On a related question, is there a way to specify a IP subnet as an iSCSI 
Initiator node in a Discovery Domain -- the intent is to allow all the hosts 
on a subnet to access the targets in the corresponding DD.
 
Regards,
Dan

Dan,

 

Here are my responses:

 

1)       Yes, as alluded to in the iSNS draft.  You understood it well.

2)       You are welcome to write a paper or RFC if you desire.  I am willing to help you out.

3)       Yes.

 

Regards,

Josh

Subject: [Ips] iSNS: question on exporting FC Zone DB to iSNS DB

 

Hi,


 


I would like to get some opinions and thoughts on mapping FC Zone Server DB


to iSNS DB in a single or multiple fabrics, mixed protocol SAN switches 


environment.


 


Based on my understanding of the FC-GS, FC-SW, and the iSNS draft, FC zone 


objects are mapped to iSNS objects as follow: 


 


  FC zone maps to iSNS DD (Discovery Domain).


  FC zone set maps to iSNS DD Set.


  FC fabric maps to iSNS Network Entity.


 


Assume we have a multi-fabric SAN with mixed FC and iSCSI switches,


and FC/iSCSI gateways.


We want to create a central iSNS database to store all the devices, 


where some of the devices are exported from the FC zone DBs, and some 


are registered from the iSNS capable clients (most likely iSCSI devices).  


With the central iSNS server, iSNS capable management stations now 


have a full view of the whole multi-fabric SAN. 


 


My questions are:


 


1. Would iSNS serve well for the above application?


2. When FC Zone DBs are merged or segmented, how the FC Zone DBs


    are synchronized with the iSNS DB is an implementation issue, but 


    has anybody written any guideline or paper on this?


    If not, would this subject be a good ietf draft/rfc candidate?


3. Is there any such product on the market from the major SAN switch 


    manufacturers (that exports and maps FC Zone DB to iSNS server)?


 


Thanks,


Dan

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat =

SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal =

Thanks=20

Would it work to just use SendTargets=3D<nothing> instead of NOP? If =
there is a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just =
the target name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the =
target would still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength.=20

I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during =

  iSCSI defines two types of sessions:=20

There is an extension to iSCSI called ISER - being worked on by a consortium of companies. Julo

iscsi RDMA standard

	




Hi 
  
I am new to RDMA ISCSI. Is there any standars exist for iscsi RDMA.

Eddy, 

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat richer in that in a "storage router" NOP might reach the end-point while SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal about NOP.

Thanks 

  


Would it work to just use SendTargets=<nothing> instead of NOP? If there is a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the target name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the target would still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength. 


  


If so, can you talk that person into that? 


  


Eddy

It is not allowed in discovery - There was a long discussion with one party insisting on having NOP as a way of keeping the discovery session alive. 
Discovery being only a lightweight location mechanism it was decided that it is  not worth having it as a permanent alternative for a management interface.

[Ips] NOP during Discovery

  





  	 





I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during discovery phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I misunderstanding something? 


  


3.3 iSCSI Session Types 


  iSCSI defines two types of sessions: 


  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session. 


  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target 


     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the 


     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the 


     session". All other requests MUST be rejected. 


     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in 


     the login command. 


  


  


Eddy

I just want to make it clear that while iSER has been
submitted as internet drafts, no decision has been made on
whether to work on standardization in the IETF.  Anyone
can submit an Internet-Draft to the IETF on almost any
relevant topic, and these drafts currently have that
"individual submission" status.

Thanks,

The consortium has finished the work Julian mentioned. The results of the
work have been submitted as internet drafts:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ko-iwarp-iser-00.txt

and

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-chadalapaka-iwarp-da-00.txt

The first is the spec for iSCSI over iSER and the second is the architecture
document.

Subject: RE: [Ips] NOP during Discovery


Eddy, 

I think that they realized that already and are content. NOP is somewhat
richer in that in a "storage router" NOP might reach the end-point while
SendTargets will probably not.  In any case the text is unequivocal about
NOP.

SubjectRE: [Ips] NOP during Discovery









Thanks 
  
Would it work to just use SendTargets=<nothing> instead of NOP? If there is
a target for the discovery session, it would respond with just the target
name. If there are no targets for the discovery session, the target would
still respond but with 0 for the DataSegmentLength. 
  
If so, can you talk that person into that? 
  
Eddy

It is not allowed in discovery - There was a long discussion with one party
insisting on having NOP as a way of keeping the discovery session alive. 
Discovery being only a lightweight location mechanism it was decided that it
is  not worth having it as a permanent alternative for a management
interface.

Subject[Ips] NOP during Discovery

  

   






I have found that at least one initiator is doing a NOP-out during discovery
phase. But the spec says that isn't allowed. Am I misunderstanding
something? 
  
3.3 iSCSI Session Types 
  iSCSI defines two types of sessions: 
  a) Normal operational session - an unrestricted session. 
  b) Discovery-session - a session only opened for target 
     discovery. The target MUST ONLY accept text requests with the 
     SendTargets key and a logout request with reason "close the 
     session". All other requests MUST be rejected. 
     The session type is defined during login with key=value parameter in 
     the login command.

Dan,

 

Contact me offline if you want help writing a draft.


 

Regarding your question, in iSNS connectivity between iSCSI devices is
established by DD membership.  DD membership for an iSCSI device can only be
established by iSCSI Name.  Portal membership in a DD only indicates the
preferred interface for iSCSI sessions, and by itself does not indicate DD
membership for any iSCSI device.  So the answer is 'no', you cannot
establish DD membership by IP subnet.

 

Josh

Joshua,

 

Thanks.  

 

Regardinig #2, I would be interested in writing a paper after I have
explored 

more on the interoperability issues in bridging FC zones to iSNS, will

definitely need more of your help.  I don't believe this qualifies for IETF
draft 

or RFC, but having a more well defined rules in mapping FC zones to iSNS 

will simplify the job of managing a mixed FC/iSCSI SAN.

On a related question, is there a way to specify a IP subnet as an iSCSI 

Initiator node in a Discovery Domain -- the intent is to allow all the hosts


on a subnet to access the targets in the corresponding DD.

Dan

Dan,

 

Here are my responses:

 

1)       Yes, as alluded to in the iSNS draft.  You understood it well.

2)       You are welcome to write a paper or RFC if you desire.  I am
willing to help you out.

3)       Yes.

Subject: [Ips] iSNS: question on exporting FC Zone DB to iSNS DB

 

Hi,

 

I would like to get some opinions and thoughts on mapping FC Zone Server DB

to iSNS DB in a single or multiple fabrics, mixed protocol SAN switches 

environment.

 

Based on my understanding of the FC-GS, FC-SW, and the iSNS draft, FC zone 

objects are mapped to iSNS objects as follow: 

 

  FC zone maps to iSNS DD (Discovery Domain).

  FC zone set maps to iSNS DD Set.

  FC fabric maps to iSNS Network Entity.

 

Assume we have a multi-fabric SAN with mixed FC and iSCSI switches,

and FC/iSCSI gateways.

We want to create a central iSNS database to store all the devices, 

where some of the devices are exported from the FC zone DBs, and some 

are registered from the iSNS capable clients (most likely iSCSI devices).  

With the central iSNS server, iSNS capable management stations now 

have a full view of the whole multi-fabric SAN. 

 

My questions are:

 

1. Would iSNS serve well for the above application?

2. When FC Zone DBs are merged or segmented, how the FC Zone DBs

    are synchronized with the iSNS DB is an implementation issue, but 

    has anybody written any guideline or paper on this?

    If not, would this subject be a good ietf draft/rfc candidate?

3. Is there any such product on the market from the major SAN switch 

    manufacturers (that exports and maps FC Zone DB to iSNS server)?

 

Thanks,

Dan

Josh,
 
Base on the same reasoning that iSNS doesn't support the use of IP subnet
as an initiator node in a DD, it doesn't support the (Domain_ID,Port_Number) 
construct in a FC zone, correct? 
 
Thanks,
Dan

Dan,

 

Contact me offline if you want help writing a draft.                                                  

 

Regarding your question, in iSNS connectivity between iSCSI devices is established by DD membership.  DD membership for an iSCSI device can only be established by iSCSI Name.  Portal membership in a DD only indicates the preferred interface for iSCSI sessions, and by itself does not indicate DD membership for any iSCSI device.  So the answer is 'no', you cannot establish DD membership by IP subnet.

 

Josh

Joshua,


 


Thanks.  


 


Regardinig #2, I would be interested in writing a paper after I have explored 


more on the interoperability issues in bridging FC zones to iSNS, will


definitely need more of your help.  I don't believe this qualifies for IETF draft 


or RFC, but having a more well defined rules in mapping FC zones to iSNS 


will simplify the job of managing a mixed FC/iSCSI SAN.


On a related question, is there a way to specify a IP subnet as an iSCSI 


Initiator node in a Discovery Domain -- the intent is to allow all the hosts 


on a subnet to access the targets in the corresponding DD.


 


Regards,


Dan

Dan,

 

Here are my responses:

 

1)       Yes, as alluded to in the iSNS draft.  You understood it well.

2)       You are welcome to write a paper or RFC if you desire.  I am willing to help you out.

3)       Yes.

Subject: [Ips] iSNS: question on exporting FC Zone DB to iSNS DB

 

Hi,


 


I would like to get some opinions and thoughts on mapping FC Zone Server DB


to iSNS DB in a single or multiple fabrics, mixed protocol SAN switches 


environment.


 


Based on my understanding of the FC-GS, FC-SW, and the iSNS draft, FC zone 


objects are mapped to iSNS objects as follow: 


 


  FC zone maps to iSNS DD (Discovery Domain).


  FC zone set maps to iSNS DD Set.


  FC fabric maps to iSNS Network Entity.


 


Assume we have a multi-fabric SAN with mixed FC and iSCSI switches,


and FC/iSCSI gateways.


We want to create a central iSNS database to store all the devices, 


where some of the devices are exported from the FC zone DBs, and some 


are registered from the iSNS capable clients (most likely iSCSI devices).  


With the central iSNS server, iSNS capable management stations now 


have a full view of the whole multi-fabric SAN. 


 


My questions are:


 


1. Would iSNS serve well for the above application?


2. When FC Zone DBs are merged or segmented, how the FC Zone DBs


    are synchronized with the iSNS DB is an implementation issue, but 


    has anybody written any guideline or paper on this?


    If not, would this subject be a good ietf draft/rfc candidate?


3. Is there any such product on the market from the major SAN switch 


    manufacturers (that exports and maps FC Zone DB to iSNS server)?


 


Thanks,


Dan

I    ->    T         "SendTargets=ALL"
T   ->   I           "TargetName="                 //  Is this valid ??

For the benefit of others - I got 2 pieces of feedback on my response:

1) the new list address to use for iSCSI is 
<mailto:ips@ietf.org>ips@ietf.org  -  ips@ece.cmu.edu has been discontinued 
(Marjorie Krueger @ HP)
2) do not use HTML but plain text in your replies (MIchael Brown @ EMC)

Having said that, here is the original message and reply:

----- begin included message -----

My understanding is that the proper response is an empty PDU payload - in 
other words, the DataSegmentLength field in the response header is 0.  This 
is the way we operate and how I have seen other targets operate.

My understanding is that the proper response is an empty PDU payload - in 
other words, the DataSegmentLength field in the response header is 0. This 
is the way we operate and how I have seen other targets operate.

Regarding the following request:

> 2) do not use HTML but plain text in your replies (MIchael Brown @ EMC)

I guess people can make that request, as not every mail reader copes
well with HTML, but I don't think it's appropriate to ban it from this
list - it's been used without major issue here for a while.  It would
be a courtesy for people to set their mailers to default to plain text
(e.g., mine is set that way, hence this message), but I see no cause
to ban or actively discourage it on this list.  OTOH, don't even think
about sending Rich Text Format email to this list.

Thanks,
--David (IPS WG co-chair).

My understanding is that the proper response is an empty PDU payload - in
other words, the DataSegmentLength field in the response header is 0.  This
is the way we operate and how I have seen other targets operate.

I feel differently.  At one time I had HTML enabled in my mail
reader.  I changed it so that it refuses to interpret "HTML".  I ran
into too many mail messages created by certain mailers from certain
vendors that produce grossly proprietary weird syntax and pretend it
is HTML.  Such messages produce ugly garbage, consume excessive CPU
time in the mail reader, or otherwise create a nuisance.

So for this reason my mail reader now always uses the plaintext flavor
of the message if it is available.  If a mail message ONLY offers an
HTML form, it is usually spam.  On the rare occasions when it isn't, I
may try to look at it but I would really prefer not to.

As far as I can see, there is NO reason for sending HTML to lists such
as this one, and many reasons (including, for example, effective
operation of the archiver system) to avoid it.
