Hi Jason, Thank you so much for all of the information. This really provides some good insight on the integration of iSCSI with LIO. Lets hope that kernel folks can work fast ahah Sam On Wed, Aug 9, 2017 at 12:48 PM, Jason Dillaman wrote: > Yeah -- the issue is that if

Yeah -- the issue is that if nodeA is the active path and Windows issues some PRs, then if nodeA fails and nodeB is promoted to the active path, those PRs won't exist and Windows will balk and fail the device. I've seen some posts online w/ folks writing custom pacemaker resource scripts to try to

Hi all, Platform : Centos 7 Luminous 12.1.2 First time here but, are there any guides or guidelines out there on how to configure ISCSI gateways in HA so that if one gateway fails, IO can continue on the passive node? What I've done so far -ISCSI node with Ceph client map rbd on boot -Rbd has
