Sure. We need an iSCSI lun that goes across multiple filesystems. We basically want to stitch together filesystems into an iSCSI lun. The code that existed required that the LUN consist of one file (unless I am mistaken). Do you see a better way to do this? In out situation we can't take multiple disks and create an LVW then populate it with one giant file. ~Kevin ----- Original Message ----- From: Andy Grover <agrover@xxxxxxxxxx> To: Kevin Baughman <curb_pks@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; "stgt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <stgt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2011 2:09 PM Subject: Re: Added feature On 10/18/2011 10:44 AM, Kevin Baughman wrote: > I have a use case that where I want to create a lun, and have the > backing store be multiple files rather than just one.

Exactly what is this use case? Without knowing more it is hard to say if others might find it useful. Is this to support filesystems with a restrictive file size limit?
