Thus making it impossible to use outside of a data center.... the entire point of this subthread was to show that OpenStack picked wrong and did so based on standard recommendations in the Linux community at the time (2013-2014) and that those recommendations where/are still being made and are demonstrably wrong. The other main point was to show why source distrubtion is better then binary distrubtion (if OpenStack was available in easy to compile source form [which is and was not] it would of been trivial to do a after market patch to not require iSCSCI) -- Aryeh M.
