Let me ask this another way. SAN users expect that the LUN list at the
initiator side gets updated automatically after a SAN configuration
change. How should a SAN system communicate to a SCSI initiator that
the LUN list has been changed ? Some FC SAN systems send a LIP after a
configuration change to force the initiator to rescan LUNs. But how to
inform the initiator about a LUN change for other SCSI protocols ? I'm
not sure that it is even possible to report such a change via sense
data in case a SAN user first removes all LUNs and after that change
adds one or more LUNs.
