There are still a fair number of outstanding bugs in the target code, some that are only now being fixed after many months on the bug list, so the iscsi team seem to be busy working on those at the moment. I'm not sure if there are any plans to support this feature in the new COMSTAR iscsi target, but that code is still at a very early stage. > I'm still fairly new to OpenSolaris.

Yes, I think raising a bug for this will help get the issue onto the 'radar' of the iscsi target team: http://www.opensolaris.org/bug/report.jspa Give it a category of "storage_target" & "iscsi" Once you hit the send button, don't expect an instant response. It does not even automatically give you a bug ID number! Wait about 3 working days, and then do a search & you should then find the bug in the database.
