If you are referring to the iSCSI specific part, there is nothing  
different between one iSCSI target being accessed by one iSCSI  
Initiator, or 10s, 100s, or 1000s of iSCSI Initiators accessing one  
iSCSI Target.

Of course having multiple iSCSI Initiators sharing one or more LUNs,  
there needs to be software that supports sharing, which is where  
Shared QFS comes in. You can find this information straight out of  
the documentation: http://docs.sun.com/source/817-4091-10/chapter5.html.

I took 8 FC LUNs, create 8 iSCSI Targets, then on each iSCSI  
Initiator I enabled "send targets".
I then followed the Shared QFS manual (above) to create one meta-data  
server, and many QFS clients.

Besides getting lots of physical and virtual instances of Solaris  
installed, this whole configuration was straight forward. Of course  
to manage multiple Solaris hosts as one host, use Cluster SSH http:// 
clusterssh.wiki.sourceforge.net/Main+Page
