Latest sources were much better behaved. Thanks. I now have secondary domains up and running with iSCSI luns as the root device. DOM1 doesn''t appear to have any difficulty saturating the iSCSI initiator.

Just to check I understand what you''re doing: you''re running an iSCSI initiator in dom0 that is talking to an iSCSI disk array over GigE, and then re-exporting this as xen block devices to other domains. (?) Which iSCSI initiator are you using? Do you know of a compatible iSCSI target (disk) implementation for Linux? (for those of us that don''t have an iSCSI arry to play with. Do you know of any iSCSI initiator implementations that support root fs on iSCSI? (I know this isn''t relevant for your setup in dom0, but in some circumstances it would be nice to have the domains talking direct.

(?)I''m using Adaptec''s iSCSI hardware initiator. The driver is the latest version I downloaded from their website. A NetApp filer is the device exporting LUNs over iSCSI.> Which iSCSI initiator are you using? Do you know of a compatible > iSCSI target (disk) implementation for Linux? (for those of us > that don''t have an iSCSI arry to play with.I can provide a user-mode version if a working Linux one isn''t found. The UNH code is not the cleanest. The few people I know who''ve tried it have had problems.> Do you know of any iSCSI initiator implementations that support > root fs on iSCSI?

Britt Bolen - mentioned in another e-mail figuring out the contortions required to get iSCSI root with the Cisco initiator. -Kip ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: SourceForge.net Broadband Sign-up now for SourceForge Broadband and get the fastest 6.0/768 connection for only $19.95/mo for the first 3 months! http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=2562&alloc_id=6184&op=click _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xen-devel
