I will use these features! I would also like to be able specify the LUN for each backingstore, not just that they always start at 1 and increment one by one. I would like to specify the device type to use for each backingstore. It currently assumes everything is a disk device. later I would also like to be able to configure for individual LUNs things like : Only these initiators can see/access this particular LUN. These particular initiators can see/access this LUN but the LUN is read-only for them. When you design the algorithms for setting the serial numbers automatically, leave some reserved space in the field for snapshots. If in the future STGT gets the ability to snapshot a lun or a set of luns, the snapshots should have different serial numbers than the original production lun. Maybe leaving the last 2 digits/characters in the serial number as 00 for all LUNs, later if snapshots are added they automatically get 01 02 03... regards ronnie sahlberg -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stgt" in the body of a message to majordomo at vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html |
