Cool. This is actually working, right?

Probably, we put this info somewhere (like under doc directory).
I've copied 'README.iscsi' to README.passthrough.

I'm about 3/4 done updating README.passthrough with this information and will submit a patch (hopefully tomorrow)

I also plan on running some tests using NetBackup. I was hoping I was going to get time today, but 'work' got in the way.

Hopefully in the next couple of days I can run some load testing..

Anything / any status you would like collected while running ?

On "target" host:

            Backing store flags:

            Type: (null)

Seems that we could improve "Type" message.

Thanks!
