Earlier you seemed to imply that the ZFS/iet plugin works with targetcli - is
that the case?
I don't think so.

Yes, I will look in to this this weekend.
Forgot to mention. Since snapshots by nature is read-only you have to
set option wp=true to have iscsi properly advertise read-only to the
mount util. I think Linux will make some internal optimization given it
knows writes is not supported.

Any comments about that idea?
Will creating a clone instead of a snapshot not take considerably
Yes, i guess so. It also has other problems, because not all storage type
supports
cloning from snapshots ...
So it was an interesting idea, but does not really solve all problems :-/
To solve the problem for the ZFSPlugin, I think it may help to
introduce another storage API call to
While thinking about this, I came to a totally different topic.
Would it make sense to add an Linux iSCSI (LIO) backend (LunCMD driver)?
It is really easy to setup a ZFS box with our installer, so one
could easily use such box as external iSCSI storage then?
Comments?

I guess it is already possible with PVE::Storage::LunCmd::Iet, but LIO
should provide better performance?
I have been thinking about this as well because Iet is deprecated in
newer distributions (younger Debian Wheezy)

There are two preconditions which must be fulfilled:
1) LUN must be pointing to the snapshot
Hi all,
the PVE::Storage::path method has the following signature:
PVE::Storage::path($cfg, $volid, $snapname);
As you can see, It has that $snapname parameter, and I tried to
correctly implement this here:
