Ken is a little too kind. The noted pdf file was a couple slides from a presentation I gave around a year ago to an open solaris users group. The bullet points look nice but you won't find much meat in there unless you attended the matching presentation.

I recommend you check out the excellent white papers on iSCSI by the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA).

        http://www.snia.org/ipstorage/home

Then once you get the basic understanding of iSCSI down search at http://docs.sun.com for "iscsi" to get more solaris specifics. The Solaris Administration guide has a good outline on the usage of the Solaris iSCSI initiator, Solaris iSCSI target, and iSCSI storage array/bridge products sold by Sun.

Just to be fair other storage iSCSI vendors also have very good papers on iSCSI and iSCSI's usage on Solaris. Even if you don't use a 3rd party product I recommend you check out some of the white papers on their sites. Atleast two of the major vendors out there have extremely good introductions to iSCSI on Solaris. (I'm avoiding giving names so I don't get beat up by the Sun folks.)

Here's an excellent doc that contains both general iSCSI info and specifics on the Solaris iSCSI initiator:

This document also contains links to other iSCSI docs.

guys, I'm newbie into this world of iSCSI and I need to understand it. Here, in my environment, arrives a new storage based on this technology. So, please, can anyone tell me where I'll find some documents about iSCSI and how to use this on OpenSolaris ? I'm trying to use iscsiadm tool to reach the storage. I need to understand this architeture.

TIA,
Thiago Sobral
