The IESG has received a request from the STORage Maintenance WG (storm) to consider the following document: - 'Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) SCSI Features Update' <draft-ietf-storm-iscsi-sam-08.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-08-22. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) is a SCSI transport protocol that maps the SCSI family of protocols onto TCP/IP. The iSCSI protocol as specified in RFCxxx (and as previously specified by the combination of RFC 3720 and RFC 5048) is based on the SAM-2 (SCSI Architecture Model - 2) version of the SCSI family of protocols. This document defines enhancements to the iSCSI protocol to support certain additional features of the SCSI protocol that were defined in SAM-3, SAM-4, and SAM-5. This document is a companion document to RFCxxx. -------------------------------------------------------- RFC EDITORS NOTE: The above two references to RFCxxx should reference the RFC number assigned to the draft-ietf-storm- iscsi-cons-xx document, and this note should be removed. -------------------------------------------------------- The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-storm-iscsi-sam/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-storm-iscsi-sam/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
