Hello, We are encountering some problem while configuring a sata dvd burner for remote access using tgtd 1.0.15 "passthrough" mode. It looks like access to the remote device is unreliable : sometime it works, sometime not, and in all situations we are receiving strange messages from the kernel.

In the previous syslodg extract, the revalidation problem is the usual symptom for dvd burning error. The drive does't show such errors when accessed locally. When it works, we can burn dvd up to 4x. We never succeeded to burn a faster media (12x, 16x) Is there a way we can troubleshoot the problem using tgtd debug trace system ? Our configuration is RHEL 6, with stgt v1.0.15, 12 GB RAM and core I7.
