[stgt] Limiting the number of ISCSI-Sessions per target

Hello stgt developers!

I have a HA XEN-setup based on ISCSI devices [tgtd (target) and
open-iscsi (initiator)]
as physical devices for the XEN DomUs.

In case of a split-Brain in the HA-System more than one machine may
fetch a iSCSI-Session and may try to bring up a XEN-VM on it. This will seriously damage the
filesystem.

Therefore I like to limit the number of iSCSI sessions to one 
session per target, simultaneously

Is there a way to limit the number of ISCSI-Sessions per Target-ID?
I found the MaxConnection-Parameter but it limits only the number of
connections within a single iSCSI-Session.
Is there something alike - say a MaxSession-Parameter?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Volker
