As it turned out, not quite. Hence the patches. BTW: the main issue I have with current lio-target is that you can only configure it _after_ the target has been enabled. IE if you want to add another ALUA state you have to create another TPG, and set this to the required ALUA state. But you can modify the TPG allegiance only _after_ the LUN has been created and is visible to the host. Which means that the initiator inevitably sees both states, and it's impossible to have the LUN start off with a different than the default ALUA state. (This is especially important if one would want to test the READ CAPACITY support in ALUA standby state). Would you be okay with changing that?
