In principle you could, as ibmvscsi is using SRP internally, which does support 64 bit LUNs. However, due to some weird design decisions there is the function 'lun_from_dev()', which mangles the incoming LUN number into something ... else. Which leaves only 4 bits free for the actual LUN number, requiring you to use max_lun = 16. Personally I would just do away with that function and use the incoming LUN numbers as is. Brian?
