There are two competing SCSI > target infrastructure projects- SCST and STGT. STGT is upstream and SCST Robert: One other thing that's important to understand is that the target stuff we're discussing here is not fabric simulation software. It would allow a point-to-point connection, or potentially allow a soft target to login to a fabric, but it would not simulate a full environment, that would take a lot more effort. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.open-fcoe.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
