Here's the doc : http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-7821 This thread could be of interest for you : http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=117292&tstart=0 <http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=117292&tstart=0>
We tried to setup something similar (sharing the resulting mirrored zpool through CIFS), but had some problems with ISCI, so we changed our minds (I'm not saying you should change yours though and I'm willing to hear about your success/failure to set this up). You can read about our problems here http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=455186 and here http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=122973&tstart=0 <http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=122973&tstart=0> Regarding agents, I can't tell for linux (we don't use ISCI for linux at this time). For windows XP you can download the software initiator from MS website for free. For 2K3, I can't remember if it's included or not. Beginning with vista, I think it's included in the system and you should even be able to install and directly on/from ISCSI. Other than that, you can always buy an hardware initiator (never worked with this kind of hardware, but I know it exists). Have a nice day, Arnaud
