 This really isn't the place to ask about iSCSI targets, by the way. This 
 list is for discussion of the open-iscsi iSCSI initiator package.

 But I'll try to answer your questions.
  


 1 \ both lio-utils and tgt are pure user space program? Both of them are 
 using the kernel iscsi module ? So ,what is the difference between them?


 No, I believe the tgt (or stgt) package uses a user-space daemon, but it 
 only handles administration of connections. The transport is handled by the 
 kernel. See http://stgt.sourceforge.net

 The lio-utils package is being deprecated in favor of the targetcli 
 package. Right now, targetcli works on top of lio-utils, but soon it will 
 run standalone. See http://linux-iscsi.org/wiki/Lio-utils

 The lio-utils/targetcli combo is configured in user space, but managed in 
 kernel space. There is no user-space daemon running in this case.

 Difference between them: plenty. Configured differently, different 
 designs, and the Linux community has chosen targetcli moving forward. I 
 have *not* benchmarked them, so I have no idea if one performs better than 
 the other. Also, targetcli doesn't yet have every feature that tgt has, 
 such as iSNS support, but targetcli is being actively developed/improved.

 2 \ Are there any guide documents on how to setup a iscsi target using 
 both tgt and lio-utils?


 I have created some simple example documents, but they are SUSE-based. I 
 haven't published them yet, but was thinking of setting up some place where 
 I could do that. I could probably email them to you if you thought they 
 might be useful.

 Note: if you use targetcli, try the manual page, as it has enough 
 information to set up a simple target.
  


 Thanks a lot for your help and time !
