Very nice debugging. Thanks.

We have not seen setups with that many sessions, so we just did not
support it.

It sounds like the Red Hat iSCSI engineer, Chris Leech, is working on a

Just curious. Are you doing a LUN per target and have lots of LUNs? Or
do you have lots of targets or target portals for some other reason? How
many?
