Hello! About redundancy: we have distributed filesystem (IBM GPFS), on several nodes. Each node have it's own disks directly attachet to it - there is no shared storage. So we use GPFS replication to store two replicas of all data. Disks of virtual machines is actually a files on GPFS. So, to export disk of one virtual machine, we need to do it on at least two GPFS nodes from both GPFS failure groups.
I will test your patch tomorrow and will report about results. Now i have one more question about iSER: I plan to use Centos-5.5 as GPFS nodes (and iSER target) OS. Latest OFED not supports iSER on kernels older 2.6.30, so i need to use a distribution IB stack instead latest OFED. Is that a good idea, or maybe i need to look at another operating system distribution for iSER target? By the way, on SLES i also not use IB stack from OFED, and use SLES distribution IB stack.
