The Microsoft Windows iSCSI logo program requires and checks for SCSI
RESERVE/RELEASE (per SPC & SPC-2). Any target that passes is ready for
Windows cluster.  There are a list of target devices that have passed
logo testing at this link

Subject: RIF: [Ips] is a share disk possible on SCSI/iSCSI level?

Hi,
the compatibility of commercial iscsi gateway with reserve-release
mechanism is not widely available, even if everyone agrees that
clustering systems with iscsi targets (instead of expensive FC SAN)
could cut down the costs of the solutions.
 
Any news about target implementation (also not commercial ...) with
release-reserve support?

	Oggetto: [Ips] is a share disk possible on SCSI/iSCSI level?

	Hi,
	  Storaging networking enables storage consolodation and
deployment.Typically disk array
	serves as a storage server, its storage is parted and exported
via storage networking protocols
	such as iSCSI,etc. Share problem arises. Current solutions are
mainly on upper file level, either
	additionally deploying a NAS or using a SAN file system. Is it
possible on SCSI/iSCSI level?
	  In iSCSI spec, multi session on a target are allowed. is it
for sharing?  On SCSI, OSD commands
	are designed.Is it the way for sharing on disk level?
