Hmmm... The linked page is a howto on using IET and Open-iSCSI.
Elsewhere on the net, I read that tgt (Stgt?) is the replacement for
IET...
Which naturally leads to a confused me:
Is it true that tgt will replace IET?
If not (or not in the near future), what's the advantage/disadvantage
of one over the other?
If true, are there any links/howtos/tutorial on using tgt? And tuning it?
Thanks in advance!
Rgds,
