Guiseppe, despite the fact I like SCST, I did a comparable setup with LIO (and the respective RBD LIO Backend) in userspace. It spans over at least three "bridge" nodes without any problems. In contrast to "usual" (two controller, one backplane) iSCSI portals, I have to discover every single portal on it's own. So the multipath-part is a little more work, but not that challenging... After a little more research, I'm going to hold a talk at the Chemnitzer Linuxtage about this topic. Please leave me a PM if you wan't to peek into the (currently not completely ready) slides. > > I'm working on a lab setup regarding Ceph serving rbd images as ISCSI > datastores to VMWARE via a LIO box.
