I will if it's not fixed when I send a bigger patch.

To not duplicate work, the changes I'm working on currently are:

- allow setting write caching per lun,
- allow setting scsi_id, scsi_sn, product_id etc. other parameters, per
lun
- useful if one uses multipathd, but not only

Any users of these features out there?

Excellent. I will use these features!

I would also like to be able specify the LUN for each backingstore,
not just that they always start at 1 and increment one by one.
Yeah, I was thinking about this too.

It will be needed if we want to have a predictable lun numbering when:
- more than one lun/backing-store is used
- they have different parameters set

However, this feature will be added later.


I would like to specify the device type to use for each backingstore.
It currently assumes everything is a disk device.
What --params= is needed here?

--device-type=cd

Am I correct that it will only work on lun creation, i.e.:

tgtadm --lld iscsi --mode logicalunit --op new --tid 5 --lun 1 -b /dev/sda --device-type=cd


But it's not possible to "update" it?

tgtadm --lld iscsi --op update --mode logicalunit --tid 4 --lun=1 --device-type=disk


We still have:

       LUN: 1
           Type: cd/dvd
