I'll give that a try. I have been wondering if the way I have it setup
is my issue. I will put it on another system and give it another try.
Do you think if I set it up in another domU on a different xen host it
would be alright?
I wouldn't run that important service on a virtual machine.
You want to minimize the latency and maximize the throughput for the
iscsi target..
Unless it's only for testing purposes, then it's fine.

Thanks for the advice Pasi. It is just for testing, I want to get it
figured out before I dedicate a box to it.
