The current technology for discovering network iSCSI devices is not good. Most administrators just have to "know" the name and location of remote storage, but this becomes problematic when there are a log of devices (or the administrator has a bad memory). The current "solution" for this is supposed to be open-isns, but it's overly complicated and so generally not used. Hannes suggesting using zeroconf (bonjour) to make storage devices easily discoverable, but questions remain. Is this feasable? Should open-isns be modified to also broadcast via zeroconf, or is a new daemon needed? Does anyone else care? (Honestly, I can't judge actual demand for this very well.) Thanks. -- Lee Duncan
