I did try to use sgmode to enable this, but that just did not work. -geoff - Geoff Galitz Blankenheim NRW, Germany http://www.galitz.org/ http://german-way.com/blog/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups open-iscsi group.

Actually I think if you can't do it on the remote end (i.e. target), the initiator will also fail, because iSCSI just transports the request to the target.

Write back cache
Hello, I am connecting to iSCSI targets on a QNAP TS-439U. They connect as write-through cache enabled, but I cannot seem to tune the cache on the QNAP side. Is there a way to enable/configure write back cache on the Linux initiator side? I am actually doing this via XenServer, but they seem to be using standard open-iscsi from what I can tell.
