Hi Nadai,
   Thanks! So I think I understand it. You get a big fiberchannel link with a 
storage server far far away, run SCSI over that fiberchannel link, attach to 
that LUN ("disk or volume") and export it as iSCSI . Then you make a RAID 1 
between that iSCSI-exported LUN and another (local) disk, and you get 
redundancy. Is that right?
