What you, and very likely other implementors, might like to author is an
Internet Draft with the title "Implementation considerations for iSCSI (RFC
xxxx)" where items that are not explicitly clear are laid down.  IDs are
easy to make and, as far as I know, there are no requirements as to
authorship.  That way the ID can be kept up to date as a kind of
implementors' FAQ while the standard is unchanging.

I couldn't agree more.

Plus SAM-2 is prerequisite to any attempt at implementing or even reading
and understanding iSCSI.

I understand that there _could_ be some confusion to someone totally
unfamiliar with SCSI and iSCSI, but we cannot accomodate for all those
"confusions" -- we might as well copy SAM-2 right in (and then there'd
still be confusions :-) ).

The spec is consistent, and for completeness SAM-2 is a prerequisite --
iSCSI need not be changed for this.

Luben

P.S. From SAM-2's perspective, why would someone send status for a task
twice when the task's lifetime ended when the 1st status was received?

  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I believe that this statement (underlined above) is pretty clear to
everyone, or at least it _should_ be pretty clear to an engineer.
I don't think an _engineer_ can miss it.

I think this thread didn't start with this misunderstanding. I believe it
started with the fact that a broken target sent SCSI status twice, 1st as
part of READ and 2nd as part of SCSI Response.

> Thus once you've sent status, the PDU is neither needed
> nor appropriate. As the SCSI Command Response PDU is an iSCSI

Returning status and response _is_ a SAM thing.  iSCSI as an interconnect
has to accomodate it and stipulate how it implements it.

The reference in SAM-2 is 5.1 Service Response, and 5.3.1 Status, those
are exactly iSCSI 10.4.2 and 10.4.3.

The iSCSI reference is 3.2, first paragraph, 3.1 second last paragraph and
3.5.1.2 SCSI Response for exact mapping and of course 10.4 SCSI Response.

Also it is important to understand _why_ "once you've sent status,
the PDU is neither needed nor appropriate".

> To be honest, I am puzzled as to why this argument has gone on so long.

I agree, it should've ended immediately as "broken implementation of
a target -- tell them to fix it".

I think that most of those misunderstandings are due to ppl not paying
enough attention or not reading the whole spec.  Some of them just read
the PDU description and off they go implementing iSCSI.

I really don't see why whenever someone implements a buggy iSCSI
Target/Initiator, it is immediately the fault of the iSCSI spec. In fact
I contend that 99.9% if the time it's the other way around.

I actually just reviewed the spec, and it can be missed. It's never
spelled out. It's strongly inferred, but it's never stated (that there
is no reason for the PDU without status).

I agree that we are talking about a target that sent status as part
of a READ and then sent a SCSI Response. However the initial
part of this thread indicated to me that the confusion was about what
the SCSI Response PDU was (not) needed for. If the confusion
had been that status was being sent twice, then all of the references
to SAM would have cleared things up immediately.

I agree. I see two reasons. One is the SCSI requirement that you send
status once, which I think the spec states clearly now. The other is 
that
the PDU has no use other than SCSI status. That is what I'm wanting
more emphasis on.

You're the second person to use the word, "fault," in reference to
this thread. Why?

I don't think it's the iSCSI spec's "fault" that this happened, I just 
am
able to see where someone might get a different impression of what
the spec is saying than what it really meant.

So why can't we just decide, "this change will make the text clearer,"
and do it? Assuming we're still in a window when Julian is able to
make editorial changes.

Take care,

Bill

I believe you (and a few others) missed the point of misunderstanding.
The misunderstanding I was referring to was not that you can't send
status twice, it was that you can't send a SCSI Command Response
PDU that doesn't carry status; sending status is the sole purpose of
the PDU. Thus once you've sent status, the PDU is neither needed
nor appropriate. As the SCSI Command Response PDU is an iSCSI
concept, no amount of reference to SAM-2 will help the situation.

To be honest, I am puzzled as to why this argument has gone on so long.
This misunderstanding made it into code that was put up for interop
testing. The other side of the interop testing didn't feel sufficiently
bolstered as to just quote a section number to resolve the issue. When
raised on this list, a number of us said, "Yes, that can be made 
better."
We are (or were earlier this week) in a period when such small, 
clarifying
changes are appropriate. So why not make it better?

Take care,

Bill

How could you send a SCSI Response without either sending status or target
failure?



If you want to clear something up, how about clearing this up too?



   If a SCSI Response PDU does not arrive before the session is

   terminated, the SCSI service response is SERVICE DELIVERY OR TARGET

   FAILURE.



"If a SCSI Response PDU...". In the case of Data In carrying status, a SCSI
Response PDU has not been sent so the sentence leads to ambiguity (actually
that is also OK if one were to use some common sense).



   A non-zero response field indicates a failure to execute the command

   in which case the Status and Sense fields are undefined.





Why is this referring the "Sense field". There is no such field in the PDU.
It probably should be changed to "Status and Flags fields are undefined".

There is an open source version but the last I tried it, it was not up to
date. The location is: http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxisns/ An
alternative site is http://www.nishansystems.com/iSNS/index.html

The Microsoft server can be found on their web site and it works.

I am looking for iSNS servers for interop testing with our client.

Please let me know if you have a current iSNS server that you would be
willing to share.

Thank you,

You can't. The point of this hasn't been that you can, but that people
can get to thinking you can.

That too needs fixing. And it can even more strongly lead to the 
erroneous idea
you always need a SCSI Response PDU. I am though unsure if we still
have time. Julian? David?

I'd suggest something like "If SCSI Status (either SCSI Response PDU or
DATA IN with status) ...".

Indeed.

Keith,

I still don't understand why the Fabric Name will not be the Node WWN of
the principal switch.  Is it possible as defined that someone can
populate the Fabric Name with something other than a WWN?

Also I don't understand the difference between other and dynamic unless
we add a whole lot more to expand dynamic.

Maybe you can explain this during the Ad Hoc meeting today.

Thanks,
John=20

How about, I change the last sentence to be:

   FC-SW-3 requires this to be the Node WWN of the principal switch
   of the Fibre Channel fabric.

Thanks for the information.=20

I agree that "gPort" and "glPort" together represent one example
of a "determined dynamically" scenario defined by the 'dynamic'
enumeration.  However, I suggest that we want this MIB to support
multiple versions of the FC-SW specification, such that as and when
switches compliant to FC-SW-4 start shipping in the future, that this
same MIB will simultaneously support both FC-SW-3 switches and FC-SW-4
switches.  If I understand correctly, "gPort" and "glPort" were added
in SW-3 (i.e., they were not present in SW-2), and thus I would
speculate that there's a non-zero possibility that other types of
dynamic determination could be added in SW-4 or SW-5.  In other words,
I believe this MIB must not say: "you will comply with FC-SW-3", but
instead, it needs to say: "a switch compliant to FC-SW-3 will do xxx"
(for example, see the proposal I made above wrt. Fabric_Name).
That is, this MIB needs to be a superset of FC-SW-3.

Given this, then we should definitely add enumerations for a
"F/NL_Port" port, and for "gPort" and "glPort" as defined in SW-3,
but I suggest that we retain "dynamic" as well in order to give this
MIB the best chance of accommodating the future.  (Note that it has
taken many years for the IETF to get this far with this MIB.  With T11
already having started work on SW-4, let's not make any assumptions
about how long after SW-4 is approved there will be an update to
this MIB.)

Keith.

Section 10.18 in the iSCSI draft 20 states that an iSCSI
Initiator MUST send a NOP-OUT PDU if I, as an iSCSI Target,
generate a NOP-IN PDU with a valid TTT.  My question is
"How long is the Target supposed to wait before deciding
that the NOP-OUT PDU isn't coming?".  The draft does not
appear to give any guidance as to how long the Target is
supposed to wait to receive the NOP-OUT.  Would I be correct
in assuming I can use the time2wait and time2retain values
or is there some other mechanism for timing this out?

Thanks,
Kenneth Craig

Ken,

There is no specific mechanism in place for this case.
You have to consider transport characteristics (RTT) and end-point 
characteristics.
Those can be set by an administrator or learned or both.

The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'Bootstrapping Clients using the iSCSI Protocol '
   <draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-boot-12.txt> as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the IP Storage Working Group. 

The IESG contact persons are Allison Mankin and Jon Peterson.

Technical Summary
 
   This specification describes a standard mechanism to enable clients to
   bootstrap themselves using the iSCSI protocol.  The goal of this
   standard is to enable iSCSI boot clients to obtain the information to
   open an iSCSI session with the iSCSI boot server. It is possible that
   all the information is not available at the very outset, so the memo
   describes steps to obtain the information required to bootstrap
   clients off an iSCSI boot server.  Since iSCSI allows a general Internet
   to be interposed between the clients and server, a secure design is
   introduced for these steps.

Working Group Summary
 
 The original version of the boot protocol was found by Security Area 
 to have serious security flaws and was returned to the working group 
 for an overhaul.  A design team developed a completely new approach 
 during an intensive effort, developed working group consensus in 
 several careful sessions, and discussed (also with care) the
 issues of implementability.  There was good agreement by 
 and members of the SCSI standards community that  this solution
 would be adopted and implemented.
 
Protocol Quality
 
 The specification was reviewed for the IESG by the Operations 
 Directorate and Allison Mankin.  Margaret Wasserman reviewed the
 IPv6 issues.  Bernard Aboba led the effort in response to the the first
 IESG review.

RFC Editor Notes

Section 5 -

OLD:
   An iSCSI boot client which does not know its IP address at power-on
   may acquire its IP address via BOOTP or DHCP (v4 or v6).
NEW:
   An iSCSI boot client which does not know its IP address at power-on
   may acquire its IP address via BOOTP or DHCP (v4 or v6), or
   via IPv6 address autoconfiguration.

OLD:

   This is done using the variable length option named Root Path.

NEW:

   This is done using the variable length option named Root Path
   [Alexander93, Reynolds93].

In addition to what Julian said, let me add that the iSCSI spec 
generally considers the timeout values used by the iSCSI implementations 
to be outside its scope - I do not know of any exception.  Section 6 
makes this point several times wrt various timeout scenarios.

The Time2Wait/Retain are not to be used for timing any operations on one 
connection.  They are applicable only during the transition period from 
one connection to another.

I'm updating the SLP draft to include all of the proposed changes so
far, primarily the security considerations, NAT/NAPT considerations,
references, and the SMS template for use in discovering iSNS.

The primary technical change is to the SMS template, to allow for
management services that use either TCP or UDP.  I've added the
attribute:

transports = string M L
tcp
 # This is a list of transport protocols that the registered
 # entity supports.
tcp, udp

I will post a more complete list of changes shortly, along with a
iscsi-slp-07.

I've just submitted a new iscsi-slp draft, to address comments made on 
the list
during the last few months.  The draft is available at:

ftp://ftpeng.cisco.com/mbakke/ips/iscsi/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt


Issues Resolved:

1. Security Comments

   Make sure that IPsec is required whenever SLP is used
   to distribute security policy, including any of the auth-
   fields.

2. Update the Security Considerations and Security Implementation
   sections as per emails

3. Update document to deal with NATs and template chaining

4. Update template for iSNS discovery


Emails used to update from -06:

12/17/03 - David Black - FCIP and ISCSI SLP drafts

  IESG Issue 1 - Add language requiring IPsec whenever
  security policy (auth-xxxx and boot-list attributes)
  are distributed via SLP.

  IESG Issue 2 - Fix up security mechanism language, as provided
  in 12/23/03 email.

12/23/03 - David Black - FCIP and ISCSI SLP draft revisions

  Updated references to the IPS-SEC draft.

  Updated Security Considerations section.

1/16/04 - David Black - draft-ietf-ips-fcip-slp-08.txt

  Ted Hardie's NAT and template chaining comments.

1/23/04 - David Black - iSCSI SLP draft

  Updates to security considerations.

1/28/04 - Bill Studenmond - Finding iSNS using SLP

  Need to provide TCP/UDP transport information when discovering
  an iSNS URL.

  Need to discover server priority for iSNS URLs if possible.

1/29/04 - Josh Tseng - (in response to Bill's email)

  Proposed solution for TCP/UDP transport

  Non-SLP solution for server priority

3/22/04 - David Black - iSCSI SLP draft status

  iSNS text additions.

4/14/04 - David Black - iSCSI SLP draft

  Gentle reminder :-)


Changes (by section):

Finding Targets Based on Initiator Credentials

  Added text:

    Also note that the auth-xxxx attributes are
    considered to be security policy information.  If these attributes
    are distributed, IPsec MUST be implemented as specified
    in the Security Implementation section below.

Discovering Storage Management Services using SLP

  Changed URL paragraph to:

    A storage management server's URL contains the domain name or IP address
    and TCP or UDP port number.  No other information is required.

NAT and NAPT Considerations

  Added text to first paragraph (same as FCIP draft):

    Also note that SLP advertisements that occur inside a
    private address realm may be unreachable outside that realm.

  Added reference to RFC1900, as in FCIP draft.

  Updated second bullet to:

    Configure the NAPT device to provide default mapping(s) for the
    well-known port(s) and use the default IANA-assigned iSCSI TCP port
    number in service URLs, when possible.

  Deleted third bullet (SLPv2 proxy).


The iSCSI Target Concrete Service Type Template

  Added to auth-name, auth-addr, auth-cred, and boot-list attributes:

    # This attribute contains security policy information.  If this
    # attribute is distributed via an Attribute Reply message,
    # IPsec MUST be used.


iSCSI Storage Management Service Templates

  Added transports attribute (tcp and udp supported, default is tcp)

    transports = string M L
    tcp
    # This is a list of transport protocols that the registered
    # entity supports.
    tcp, udp

Security Considerations

  Updated section

Security Implementation

  Updated section

References

  Removed reference to RFC3082 (not referenced in text)

  Added reference to RFC1900 (non-normative)

  Updated iSCSI, N&D, Security, and Stringprep references to use
  the RFC numbers.

  Updated Author name format in references to match what the RFC
  editor will require.

Misc

  Updated copyright dates

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Finding iSCSI Targets and Name Servers Using SLP
	Author(s)	: M. Bakke, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt
	Pages		: 23
	Date		: 2004-4-15
	
The iSCSI protocol provides a way for hosts to access SCSI devices
over an IP network.  This document defines the use of the Service
Location Protocol (SLP) by iSCSI hosts, devices, and management
services, along with the SLP service type templates that describe the
services they provide.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Oops, that should say "MUST be implemented", not "MUST be used".  The
IPsec requirement is "MUST implement, MAY use" when distributing security
policy information (for iSCSI SLP, this means distribution of anything
containing identity info on initiators that can access a target).

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Finding iSCSI Targets and Name Servers Using SLP
	Author(s)	: M. Bakke, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt
	Pages		: 23
	Date		: 2004-4-15
	
The iSCSI protocol provides a way for hosts to access SCSI devices
over an IP network.  This document defines the use of the Service
Location Protocol (SLP) by iSCSI hosts, devices, and management
services, along with the SLP service type templates that describe the
services they provide.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to 
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.  
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce 
to change your subscription settings.


Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-slp-07.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

My bad; I must have been typing too fast.  Should I issue another draft, or
should I do this during auth48?

I'm sorry I didn't get to you yesterday about this.

I've been thinking about it, and I'm not sure I like this idea. Just 
for everyone
else, the idea is that we only have the active iSNS server advertising
itself via SLP. In the case of failover, the backup server advertises 
itself
and we wait for the original SLP advertisement to expire.

I think the thing I dislike most about this is that the other location 
methods,
DHCP and heartbeat, report all the servers. Not including a server 
priority
means SLP acts differently.

Additionally, it means that iSNS servers have to put lifetimes on their 
SLP
registrations. And the registrations have to have a lifetime that does 
not
severely impact failover (if the idea is that only active hosts are 
advertised).

Since the iSNS clients have to worry about failover anyway, I think 
it'd be
better to include the priority. Then SLP discovery would work the same 
as
heartbeat and DHCP.

Take care,

Bill

I agree with Bill.  Although I lost the original
e-mail thread, I believe the comment was to include a
priority field in the SMS template, and not to rely
exclusively on the iSNS server heartbeat for failover
priority.

I have a question about multi-connection sessions with
ErrorRecoveryLevel=3D0.
=20
Consider this situation:
=20
- Session is in progress consisting of 2 TCP connections {C1, C2)
- Initiator and Target have negotiated ErrorRecoveryLevel=3D0
- The target detects an error on TCP connection C1.
=20
What is the target supposed to do?  And, for any initiator-implementers
out there, what actions do you plan to take in the face of such an
event?
=20
I know that the target (or initiator) may choose to escalate this
situation to session recovery, and simply shutdown the entire session,
sending the appropriate ASYNC_MSG, etc.
=20
But is there provision within the spec for the session to persist
beyond the loss of an individual TCP connection, even though ERL=3D0
eliminates the possibility for task reassignment and connection
recovery?
=20
Sometimes when I read the spec, I think the target is allowed to
handle this situation by taking these actions:
=20
- Discard any cmd PDUs which have not yet been submitted to
  the SCSI layer
- Abort all in-progress commands associated with the failed
  connection
- Shutdown the failed connection
- If the discarded PDUs result in a cmd sequence window hole,
  then the initiator will have to either resubmit those cmds,
  or use task management commands to fill the hole.
=20
But other times, when I read the spec, I have doubts about
whether such behavior is prescribed or expected.
=20
Thanks in advance for any guidance!

I think the spec. covers what happens to the commands on the
lost connection.  But the error recovery level 0 case not spelled
out in one section.  The commands do not persist (3.2.7), and if
the initiator attempts reinstatement (maybe the target has not
noticed the connection failure yet) it must terminate the commands
immediately (5.3.4).  You also have to look at clearing effects in
appendix F1. (partial pdus are cleared etc.).

>But is there provision within the spec for the session to persist
>beyond the loss of an individual TCP connection, even though ERL=0

By definition the session persists, but the question is for error
recovery level 0 is it useful?  I think that it could be depending
on the situation:
1.  If there were no commands in process or transit on that lost
connection then the session can definitly continue without a
problem.  The initiator can even add another connection to replace
it.
2.  Partial PDUs in transit but none in process.  The initiator
should see an error on send and must clear the partial pdu.  It
can then re-send it on another connection (assuming it has not
sent a higher cmdsn already, if so then you have a sequence gap).
3.  Commands in process by the target. The status cannot return on the
same connection. This can be handled by a task management from the
initiator.

In any case at the target you can only wait for task management
or if you detect something really bad then do session recovery. But
I don't think session recovery is automatic for a lost connection
at level 0.

I hope this helps, I am also working on multiple connection issues
with erl 0, so I would appreciate any comments.

Joe,

The ErrorLevel setting was "created" to simplify the different recovery 
options and to reduce the number of "alternatives" that have to be 
supported (keep complexity acceptable).
It may be that what you want the target to do will be handled properly 
while some other initiators may resort to the big harmer and reset the 
session.
Essentially you will end-up having to extend your testing to cover all the 
cases (and probably many initiators will play along!) but you will not be 
sure and will not be able to claim that "my target withstands the loss of 
a connection" as there might be initiators hat will not play along (which 
I assume was the purpose of your question) unless you successfully 
negotiate the proper ErrorLevel.

[Ips] Multi-connection sessions and ErrorRecoveryLevel=0






I have a question about multi-connection sessions with 
ErrorRecoveryLevel=0.
 
Consider this situation:
 
- Session is in progress consisting of 2 TCP connections {C1, C2)
- Initiator and Target have negotiated ErrorRecoveryLevel=0
- The target detects an error on TCP connection C1.
 
What is the target supposed to do?  And, for any initiator-implementers
out there, what actions do you plan to take in the face of such an event?
 
I know that the target (or initiator) may choose to escalate this
situation to session recovery, and simply shutdown the entire session,
sending the appropriate ASYNC_MSG, etc.
 
But is there provision within the spec for the session to persist
beyond the loss of an individual TCP connection, even though ERL=0
eliminates the possibility for task reassignment and connection
recovery?
 
Sometimes when I read the spec, I think the target is allowed to
handle this situation by taking these actions:
 
- Discard any cmd PDUs which have not yet been submitted to
  the SCSI layer
- Abort all in-progress commands associated with the failed
  connection
- Shutdown the failed connection
- If the discarded PDUs result in a cmd sequence window hole,
  then the initiator will have to either resubmit those cmds,
  or use task management commands to fill the hole.
 
But other times, when I read the spec, I have doubts about
whether such behavior is prescribed or expected.
 
Thanks in advance for any guidance!

sessions with ErrorRecoveryLevel=0.</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">Consider this situation:</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- Session is in progress consisting
of 2 TCP connections {C1, C2)</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- Initiator and Target have negotiated
ErrorRecoveryLevel=0</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- The target detects an error on TCP
connection C1.</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">What is the target supposed to do?
&nbsp;And, for any initiator-implementers</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">out there, what actions do you plan
to take in the face of such an event?</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">I know that the target (or initiator)
may choose to escalate this</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">situation to session recovery, and
simply shutdown the entire session,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">sending the appropriate ASYNC_MSG,
etc.</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">But is there provision within the spec
for the session to persist</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">beyond the loss of an individual TCP

<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">recovery?</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">Sometimes when I read the spec, I think
the target is allowed to</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">handle this situation by taking these
actions:</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- Discard any cmd PDUs which have not
yet been submitted to</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">&nbsp; the SCSI layer</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- Abort all in-progress commands associated
with the failed</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">&nbsp; connection</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- Shutdown the failed connection</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">- If the discarded PDUs result in a
cmd sequence window hole,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">&nbsp; then the initiator will have
to either resubmit those cmds,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">&nbsp; or use task management commands
to fill the hole.</font>
<br><font size=3>&nbsp;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">But other times, when I read the spec,
I have doubts about</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Courier New">whether such behavior is prescribed

Makes sense; I had seen the original email, then saw a (I think) later one
that said we didn't need it.

What should I call the field?  How about:

   server-priority = integer
   # The priority a client should give this server, when choosing
   # between multiple servers with the same protocol type.
   # When multiple servers are discovered for a given protocol type,
   # the client should (must?) use the server with the highest (lowest?)
   # server-priority value.

 
Is the above description adequate?  Do we want "should" or "must"
in the last sentence?  Should it be "highest" or "lowest"?

Let me know,

Mark

How about:

# The priority a client should give this server, when choosing
# between multiple servers with the same protocol type.
# When multiple servers are discovered for a given protocol type,
# this parameter indicates their relative precedence. Server
# precedence is protocol-specific; for some protocols, the primary
# server may have the highest server-priority value, while for
# others it may have the lowest. For example, with iSNS, the primary
# server has the lowest value (value 0).

I'm trying to get at: 1) different protocols may have different server
priority values already, and this field should map to that. 2) Exactly
what a client does with multiple servers is protocol-specific (we
should leave it alone in this spec). 3) We need to say somewhere
what iSNS does. As this document serves as the SLP definition for
iSNS, I figured this is the best place to mention it.

I expect that any sms protocol other than iSNS will have a separate,
follow-on document that indicates what its protocol is, its transports,
and how to use this field.

Take care,

Bill

OK; I like that better.  I'll send an 08 (with this plus David's

Need some clarification regarding Target portal Group Tag.

Draft says that "iSCSI target MUST return the
TargetPortalGroupTag key with the first login response PDU
for all session types".  But it does not, explicitly, talks
about the action that needs to be taken by initiator if
target does not return this value.

Draft section 6.11 "Protocol Errors" says that "All violations of iSCSI PDU 
exchange sequences specified in this draft are also protocol errors."

Do we need to consider it as "protocol error"?

Thanks,
Naveen.

Subject: [Ips] Behaviour of iSCSI Initiator, if target is not returning
"Target Portal Group Tag".



Need some clarification regarding Target portal Group Tag.

Draft says that "iSCSI target MUST return the
TargetPortalGroupTag key with the first login response PDU
for all session types".  But it does not, explicitly, talks
about the action that needs to be taken by initiator if
target does not return this value.

Draft section 6.11 "Protocol Errors" says that "All violations of iSCSI PDU 
exchange sequences specified in this draft are also protocol errors."

Do we need to consider it as "protocol error"?

Thanks,
Naveen.

Additionally, you may be behind in your draft ... draft 20+errata has a
correction to this since the TargetPortalGroupTag does not make sense in
some cases:

"The TargetPortalGroupTag key must also be returned by the target as a
confirmation during connection establishment when TargetName is given."

"... iSCSI target MUST return the TargetPortalGroupTag ... for all session
types when TargetName is given and the response is not a redirection."

Do I need to use on of the reserved bits to compress ISCSI PDUs using =
some compression algorithm? I quickly went through the draft but could =
not find any specific bit that you can use for something like this.=20

Did you mean compression, or encryption?

For compression there is IPcomp, which is loosely tied to encryption.
Loosely, because you can negotiate it with IKE when you negotiate
IPsec.

In a case in which you have a TOE(TCP Offload Engine) that takes iSCSI =
PDUs only, and you have no way of doing things at the TCP level, how =
would you go for compression?

I would put an IPsec gateway that includes IPcomp support in front.

That's the logical setup anyway.  Compression is useful for slow WAN
links, but not on gigabit or better Ethernet.  WAN edge IPsec boxes
have implemented IPcomp for years.

Are you suggesting that compression should be built in to iSCSI?

If so, I think that's a very bad idea.  It's quite wrong to reinvent
everything that's in IPcomp when IPcomp already exists and provides
the capabilities you are asking for.

I mentioned that I would deploy IPcomp as part of a VPN gateway
setup.  That's a valid and plausible scenario, but it's not the only
possibility.  You can also implement IPcomp right into your devices if
you wish to do so.  You may not find anyone else to talk to other than
IPsec/IPcomp gateway boxes -- given that compression has no obvious
place on LANs.  But protocol wise this would be a valid design.

As for the number of chips, that's a non-issue.  You can integrate
several protocols into one chip if that makes sense in your design.
If you have an iSCSI chip, it already implements a complete TCP/IP
stack.  Adding IPcomp to it would certainly be possible.

If you are taling about standard IP compression that is handled by 
different headers than the iSCSI one.
Otherwise if you want compression at the iSCSI level you may want to 
negotiate it with vendor keys and you won't need anything else.

Do I need to use on of the reserved bits to compress ISCSI PDUs using some 
compression algorithm? I quickly went through the draft but could not find 
any specific bit that you can use for something like this.

One question which hasn't come up is why do you want to compress PDUs?

Compression makes the most sense for a situation where the connection 
is "slow" and processing power is "cheep". Thus it makes sense to spend 
processing power (CPU cycles) to compress the data for the slow link.

The main motivator behind iSCSI, though, is Gigabit Ethernet. With it, 
the connection is not "slow". In fact, the connection is fast compared 
to a lot of stuff. Line rate for iSCSI is around 112 MiB/sec. Low-end 
PCs have 33 MHz 32-bit busses, which can transfer at 133 MB/sec 
theoretically. You of course aren't going to get that transfer rate, so 
the PCI bus will be as slow or slower than the max iSCSI rate. So all 
compression will do in this case is make things worse. You'll have to 
take processing power to read the raw data, compress it, write it to 
memory, then read that memory for TCP transmission. You're adding two 
extra data copies and eating the CPU. Not a good situation.

On the WAN side of things, the connection will go back to being slow. 
However even here I don't think compression is what you want to do. The 
problem is you probably also have a long link. So to get optimal 
performance, you want to fill the TCP pipe. That means lots of data 
outstanding (specifically bandwidth * delay worth). The way to do that 
is to work with a deep task queue and a storage system that will have 
lots of tasks outstanding. Only when you are filling the TCP pipe full 
will it make sense to look at compression.

Even then I'd suggest something like IPcomp. Otherwise, your initiator 
has to be used with your target (since any solution using reserved bits 
would be proprietary). Do you really want to develop both of them? Will 
your customers really want to be tied into your products? With IPcomp, 
you're playing the standardized-products game. Your product will work 
with other standards-compliant products, and your product will sell 
better.

Take care,

Bill

Hello,

I am studying the application characteristics of storage protocols like
iSCSI.

I need some help in figuring out some characteristics of iSCSI like:

Typically how many sessions are maintained by an initiator/target.
How many connections one usually supports per session.
What is the state maintained per session and what are the typical data
structures used.

Could you please forward me a pointer which can be of use?

Thank you very much for your help,
Nishit

I think such a target behavior will be very reasonable.  It
doesn't really look like an expensive behavior to support either.
Besides, it would leave the initiator in charge of deciding what
to do next.  If the initiator doesn't want to plug the holes
with aborts, it can always decide to shut down the session.

[not to plug it but it's a good book] Pick up the book iSCSI
by John L. Hufferd.  It provides examples of iSCSI applications
and provides additional answers to your questions.

In addition the iSCSI specification give lots of examples.
Specifically the appendix which includes example structures
and algorithms.

I apologize for the cross posting, but the breadth of expert
knowledge and breadth of responsibility for this particular=20
subject extends across all four reflectors.

The history is:

Snively:

	Proposed including:
		gPort
		glPort
		fnlPort

	Proposed removing:
		dynamic

	Because:
		All known "dynamic" ports are either G_Ports or
		GL_Ports (which dynamically change to F_ or E_Ports)
		or F/NL_Ports (which provides fabric services when
		no FL_Port is available).
		All other ports (if known) are "other",=20
		whether dynamic or not.

McCloghrie:

	Agreed to add:
		gPort
		glPort
		fnlPort
=09
	Proposed retaining:
		dynamic

	Because:
		There might be some future ports defined that had
		mechanisms that would select the final port type
		using previously undefined mechanisms.
		In a sense, this was a future proofing.

Crandall:

	Proposed removing:
		dynamic

	Because:
		Unless some clear definition of the port were
		created or referenced in a standard, it was
		equivalent to "unknown".

My final proposal would be:

	Remove:
		dynamic

	Because:
		There is no referent for a "dynamic" port. =20

Further explanation:

	All Fibre Channel Ports have an associated type.  That type
	is determined absolutely either by the port being set to or=20
	designed to be compliant with a particular type or by=20
	being designed as a specified type of multi-function port
	that uses a certain standard algorithm to determine which
	port type will be agreed upon.

	Ports with knowable types (as opposed to "unknown" types)=20
	that do not behave according to those rules are "other"
	and might as well be labeled as such.  Future revisions
	of a MIB may add additional types to the list as new port types
	are defined or may use other mechanisms (manufacturer and model)
	to define the actual use of an "other" port until such changes
	can be made in the MIB.

	Note that PortType does not tell everything there is to know
	about a port.  As an example, FcPortType nPort may be implemented
	as an FCP SCSI initiator port, an FCP SCSI target port, or
	an IPv6 over SCSI port, none of which is presently defined in the
	MIB.  Similarly E_Ports may have different capabilities such
	as trunking that are not presently defined in the MIB.  Many of
	these capabilities are also dynamic, requiring negotiations and
	login operations to actually enable them.  However, these capabilities
	do NOT define a different port type. =20

	I believe there are probably a number of solutions to the
	"future proofing" suggestion that do not require us to
	make up a definition for a port type.

[Ips] iSCSI: NOP-Out during discovery






Is it intended that a NOP-Out is allowed during discovery? Technically 
since it is not a request, 3.3 probably does not restrict it. If so, what 
about a login?
 
3.3 iSCSI Session Types
        ....
    b) Discovery-session
            All other requests MUST be rejected.

This document provides examples of the Internet Small Computer Systems
Interface (iSCSI; or SCSI over TCP) name construction and discussion
of discovery of iSCSI resources (targets) by iSCSI initiators.  This
document complements the iSCSI protocol document.  Flexibility is the
key guiding principle behind this document.  That is, an effort has
been made to satisfy the needs of both small isolated environments, as
well as large environments requiring secure/scalable solutions.

This document is a product of the IP Storage Working Group of the
IETF.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  It does
not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@IETF.ORG.  Requests to be
added to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should
be sent to RFC-DIST-REQUEST@RFC-EDITOR.ORG.

This document describes how to prepare internationalized iSCSI names
to increase the likelihood that name input and comparison work
in ways that make sense for typical users throughout the world.

The Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) protocol
provides a way for hosts to access SCSI devices over an IP network.
The iSCSI end-points, called initiators and targets, each have a
globally-unique name that must be transcribable, as well as easily
compared.

This document is a product of the IP Storage Working Group of the
IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the
"Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution
of this memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@IETF.ORG.  Requests to be
added to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should
be sent to RFC-DIST-REQUEST@RFC-EDITOR.ORG.

Details on obtaining RFCs via FTP or EMAIL may be obtained by sending
an EMAIL message to rfc-info@RFC-EDITOR.ORG with the message body

I can see why they probably used a nop ... the spec discurrages using an =

Eddy,

You can send "SendTargets=All" to the target at any time
during discovery sessions.  This will definetly tell you if the
connection is alive and that is the only reason to keep the
session open anyway.

>From Appendix D:
   After obtaining a list of targets from the discovery target session,
   an iSCSI initiator may initiate new sessions to log in to the
   discovered targets for full operation. The initiator MAY keep the
   discovery session open, and MAY send subsequent SendTargets commands
   to discover new targets.

I would prefer if initiators just performed a new login for each
discovery session. Here are my reasons:
1. Less connections open = less resources wasted on the target.
2. Having two ways to report target changes adds complexity.
3. I doubt target lists will change that often, checking once when
the initiator boots or when an administrator asks seems sufficient.

Regards,

Aaron

Thanks, I found one popular company that is doing it to see if I'm still
alive.

I can see why they probably used a nop ... the spec discurrages using an
empty text request (4th paragraph in 5.2).

What is the expected way an initiator should test for "aliveness" during a
discovery session that is held open?

 Is it intended that a NOP-Out is allowed during discovery? Technically
 since it is not a request, 3.3 probably does not restrict it. If so, what
 about a login?

 3.3 iSCSI Session Types
         ....
     b) Discovery-session
             All other requests MUST be rejected.

Bob,

Thanks for raising this.  I believe that as editor, I do need the
WG's approval to make any additions or deletions to:
draft-ietf-ips-fcmgmt-mib-04.txt at its current stage of progress.

So, if the WG approves the addition of these three recently-defined 
new types: 'gPort', 'glPort' and 'fnlPort' as new enumerations of the
FcPortType TC, then I can go ahead and add them.

As regards 'dynamic':

- it is obviously needed in the MIB's current state (to represent
G_Ports, GL_Ports and F/NL_Ports), and if the WG decided to defer the
addition of the three new types, then it would continue to be needed.

- to characterize the retention of 'dynamic' as unnecessary "future
proofing" is to ignore history.  Specifically, 'dynamic' was defined in
the original version of the draft-ietf-ips-fcmgmt-mib, more than two
years ago, and hindsight shows us that was a smart move, because (as
I said above) it is needed in the MIB's current state, it would
continue to be needed if we deferred adding the three new types, and
there are good chances it will be needed yet again in the future, even
after we add the three new types.

- the first of those good chances is currently being debated in T11 in
regard to (virtual-fabric) "trunking".  It seems to me that while T11
has not yet reached the stage of debating of whether "trunking" is a
characteristic of a port type, it likely is because a result of the
layer-2 negotiation (that you mention) will be the port becoming either
a trunking port or one of the already-defined values of FcPortType, i.e.,
it's a type just like the existing ones are.  The other (non-)types you
mention are completely different because they will not be the subject
of a layer-2 negotiation, and thus I agree that those others are not
port types at layer-2 (and this is a layer-2 MIB).

- and finally, to remove 'dynamic' because:

    There is no referent for a "dynamic" port.

doesn't make any sense to me because there is no referent for an
"unknown port" and no referent for an "other port".  Since we're not
going to throw out 'unknown' or 'other' for this reason, then neither
should we throw out 'dyanmic'.

Thanks,
Keith.

Congratulations to all for your hard work on the iSCSI rfc.

Now that iSCSI is an rfc, does the WG plan on updating rfc3347?
There have been a few changes and lots of experience gained
implementing iSCSI since July 2002.  At least we can add the
correct section numbers now.

Regards,

Aaron

With WG co-chair hat on, unless someone objects to these additions
on the list, the editor should assume the that rough consensus of the
ips WG is to make these additions.  This is a relatively minor change
(adds elements to an existing enumeration), and better aligns the MIB
with Fibre Channel standards.

As to the possible removal of the "dynamic" port type, the issue appears
to boil down to whether a "dynamic" type is justified in addition to
"other" and "unknown".  Let me encourage further comments to focus on
this specific issue, and I offer the following advice:

- I think Keith is correct that not having a standard to reference is
	insufficient to remove "dynamic", as this would also entail
	also removing "other" and "unknown", which does not appear to
	be a desired outcome.
- It would be useful to see an explanation of how "dynamic" improves
	"future proofing" over and above "other" and "unknown".  I think
	there's rough consensus that some form of "future proofing" is
	needed, and the disagreement centers on whether "other" and
	"unknown" are sufficient.

The current MIB text is:
                   unknown(1),
                   other(2),    -- none of the below
                   dynamic(3),  -- determined dynamically
where the "below" list contains N, NL, F, FL, E and B ports (and will
contain G, GL and FNL ports, assuming no objections to their addition).

Note that if we were to remove "dynamic", its value in the
enumeration would be reserved in order to avoid renumbering
other port types or accidental reuse in the future.

Thanks,
--David (ips WG co-chair)

David,

I beg to differ...

"Other" and "Unknown" are (as is stated) used to indicate that (for the=
 case of 'other') the agent can determine the port type and it is NOT any=
 of those types identified in the MIB.  "Unknown" indicates the agent is=
 unable to ascertain its type (be it any of those identified or other).  It=
 is an accepted mechanism in MIB's to provide an agent a mechanism to=
 report it as such.=20

Based on the above, I don't accept the logic that because 'other' and=
 'unknown' are not specified in any standard and that dynamic is ALSO not=
 specified in any standard then "other" an "unknown" should also be removed=
 from the MIB.=20

As for the use of dynamic, it is my opinion that if the specified states of=
 a port can be determined (and documented in the MIB), then dynamic has no=
 value.  And, from an implementor's perspective, if dynamic is added to the=
 MIB, when does one report "dynamic" versus G-port, GL_port, FNL_port (or=
 other specified port types)?

If it is to 'future-proof' the MIB, what does 'future_port_type' (aka=
 'dynamic') tell me that 'other' does not?  Help me understand.  Maybe=
 someone can point to where this has been successfully implemented (not=
 just documented) in other MIBs so we can use this as a model for=
 future-proofing our FC MIB's.  As an application vendor, "dynamic" doesn't=
 add any additional value as specified today.

With WG co-chair hat on, unless someone objects to these additions
on the list, the editor should assume the that rough consensus of the
ips WG is to make these additions.  This is a relatively minor change
(adds elements to an existing enumeration), and better aligns the MIB
with Fibre Channel standards.

As to the possible removal of the "dynamic" port type, the issue appears
to boil down to whether a "dynamic" type is justified in addition to
"other" and "unknown".  Let me encourage further comments to focus on
this specific issue, and I offer the following advice:

- I think Keith is correct that not having a standard to reference is
	insufficient to remove "dynamic", as this would also entail
	also removing "other" and "unknown", which does not appear to
	be a desired outcome.
- It would be useful to see an explanation of how "dynamic" improves
	"future proofing" over and above "other" and "unknown".  I think
	there's rough consensus that some form of "future proofing" is
	needed, and the disagreement centers on whether "other" and
	"unknown" are sufficient.

The current MIB text is:
                   unknown(1),
                   other(2),    -- none of the below
                   dynamic(3),  -- determined dynamically
where the "below" list contains N, NL, F, FL, E and B ports (and will
contain G, GL and FNL ports, assuming no objections to their addition).

Note that if we were to remove "dynamic", its value in the
enumeration would be reserved in order to avoid renumbering
other port types or accidental reuse in the future.

Thanks,
--David (ips WG co-chair)

Using David Black's consensus call, I will focus on=20
the "dynamic" question.

I am in agreement with Mike O'Donnell's=20
analysis of "unknown" and "other".  I support his
conclusions on "dynamic" (i.e. that it should be
removed as a port type).

Keith McLoughrie indicates that dynamic is useful
for future proofing.  I believe that the most effective
mechanism for future proofing would be to remove
"dynamic" as a type, then provide a certain number
of pre-specified type values for future assignment
by INCITS TC T11 standards.  That way, the MIB can remain unchanged and
the
values be picked up by future T11 standards if they
are ever required.  The number of such values should
be small, since any large number of future variants would
probably require modification to the MIB anyway.

That allows both for future definition of ports with a=20
negotiation algorithm and ports with a pre-established=20
fixed type, something that "dynamic" does not.

Mike,

I'm trying not to take sides in this discussion.  From your message,
I understand your view to be that "unknown" and "other" are sufficient
to cover all the cases in which the port type is not one of the specific
values in the enumeration (N, NL, F, etc.), and hence that "dynamic"
should not be part of that enumeration.  Consider that view noted.

Someone who is in favor of "dynamic" will need to address your question
about how it improves future-proofing.

Thanks,
--David

I quickly scanned it, looking at the changes regarding sms support.

Looks good, though I was a bit confused by one bit:


    transports = string M L
    tcp
    # This is a list of transport protocols that the registered
    # entity supports.
    tcp, udp

Is the first 'tcp' a typo?

Take care,

Bill

It's not a typo; the line right after the definition is the default to use
if nothing is returned.  The line after the description is the set of
possible literal values.

Hi Joe,

I was testing the Micorsoft ISNS Server and am puzzled by the following 
behaviors I observe. This behavior is relavant to mitzels postings in

https://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/working-groups/ips/current/msg00425.html

>From Joes statement in that email I gether that the Sourc attribute must be
any storage node already registered under the entity.

1. so initially I have 2 ISCSI disks iqn.hstname1.disk0 and iqn.hstname.dsk1.
I register the entity and the nodes as follows
Source attr: iqn.hstname1.disk0 
op attrs:
<and other things >
iqn.hstname1.disk0 and iqn.hstname.disk1

The registration with the micorsoft ISNS server succeeds

2. Now I delete the disk0 and the deregister PDU looks the following
Source attr: iqn.hstname1.disk0
op attrs:
iqn.hstname1.disk0

The deregistration succeeds

3. Now I recreate iqn.hstname1.dsk0 and re register the disk 

source attr:iqn.hstname1.disk0
op attrs:
iqn.hstname1.disk0

The registration succeeds.

But when I try to login to iqn.hstname1.disk0 from the microsoft initiator the 
the login fails with the message 

"Invalid access to memory location" at the W2k box. I am pretty sure it is internal

I am guessing that we are corrupting the ISNS server database keys 
by doing the above operation. As long as we dont delete the target which
has the name which we chose for the source attributes we are fine. But the moment
we try to deregister that specific target out ISNS data base mappings get messed
up.

Are there any guide lines besides the standard (I am looking at draft-ietf-ips-isns-22.txt)
that gives us some guidelines about the contents of the source attribute field in the
ISNS PDU ? Is it right to say that microsoft has deviated from the standard by requiring 
the source attribute to be a registered or registering storage node of the network entity ?
I dont see such restrictions in the standard, I interpret it to be any string as long as it
uniquely identifies a network entity.

Some insight will be very useful. If you wish I will be happy to provide the ethereal traces

Thanks 
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
 
I am no longer employed at Microsoft so I will not be able to help with the invalid memory access problem, but I can comment on the use of the Source Attribute and how the Microsoft iSNS server enforces this.  One question I have about this, though.  You state that this memory access error occurs on the "W2k box".  Is this machine running the iSCSI initiator or the iSNS server?  It is unclear in the email below.
 
Please read section 5.6.1 "Source Attribute" of the iSNS spec, especially the third paragraph.  This states that the Source Attribute identifies a Storage Node (not an Entity).  Also, the third paragraph defines the reason for the Microsoft iSNS server's enforcing of the Source Attribute.  It basically says that if a request is going to change the contents of the iSNS database, then this request must originate from a Node that belongs to the Entity that is being affected by the request.  Please let me know if this is not clear.
 
Thanks,
-Joe

Hi Joe,

I was testing the Micorsoft ISNS Server and am puzzled by the following 
behaviors I observe. This behavior is relavant to mitzels postings in

https://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/working-groups/ips/current/msg00425.html

>From Joes statement in that email I gether that the Sourc attribute must be
any storage node already registered under the entity.

1. so initially I have 2 ISCSI disks iqn.hstname1.disk0 and iqn.hstname.dsk1.
I register the entity and the nodes as follows
Source attr: iqn.hstname1.disk0 
op attrs:

iqn.hstname1.disk0 and iqn.hstname.disk1

The registration with the micorsoft ISNS server succeeds

2. Now I delete the disk0 and the deregister PDU looks the following
Source attr: iqn.hstname1.disk0
op attrs:
iqn.hstname1.disk0

The deregistration succeeds

3. Now I recreate iqn.hstname1.dsk0 and re register the disk 

source attr:iqn.hstname1.disk0
op attrs:
iqn.hstname1.disk0

The registration succeeds.

But when I try to login to iqn.hstname1.disk0 from the microsoft initiator the 
the login fails with the message 

"Invalid access to memory location" at the W2k box. I am pretty sure it is internal

I am guessing that we are corrupting the ISNS server database keys 
by doing the above operation. As long as we dont delete the target which
has the name which we chose for the source attributes we are fine. But the moment
we try to deregister that specific target out ISNS data base mappings get messed
up.

Are there any guide lines besides the standard (I am looking at draft-ietf-ips-isns-22.txt)
that gives us some guidelines about the contents of the source attribute field in the
ISNS PDU ? Is it right to say that microsoft has deviated from the standard by requiring 
the source attribute to be a registered or registering storage node of the network entity ?
I dont see such restrictions in the standard, I interpret it to be any string as long as it
uniquely identifies a network entity.

Some insight will be very useful. If you wish I will be happy to provide the ethereal traces

Thanks 
Ravi
