Rufe, You can find comprehensive targetcli documentation in the LIO wiki: http://linux-iscsi.org/wiki/Targetcli Or in the RTS OS Admin Manual: http://www.linux-iscsi.org/Doc/RTS%20OS%20Admin%20Manual.pdf Andy would be most welcome to help us porting the attributes from the Admin Manual to the LIO wiki - it is on our todo list. ;) I hope this helps.

Also what are > dynamic acls? I think dynamic acls are those that are created when generate_node_acls is true -- they're not created through configfs but they exist because the code requires an ACL to exist for every initiator. I did a quick grep of the code and it didn't seem to me like cache_dynamic_acls actually affects Lio's behavior, but maybe I missed something. > Another question -- is there any better documentation available for > targetcli?

Do you have some specific parameters that you think we should document better? Docs certainly could be made comprehensive, but it would help to know where to focus first.
