2. Would it be valuable to consider sending requests with
WWNN:WWPN?
I considered this, especially for the fchost ELS request. But it
means the LLDD has to do a nameserver query to find the n_port_id
corresponding to the names before it sent the ELS. It started to feel
like too much ancillary stuff for the LLDD to do to support the
request - so I punted. However, the app, where we typically don't
care if it has to do more work, is free to do this and resolve it to
the basic primitives. :)
Thanks, I've got it.
One minor questions/clarification.
If I understood correctly, ELS only supports single sg. If this is
true, shouldn't it checked somewhere before the transport layer calls
LLD?
Thank you,
Seokmann
