the iSCSI drivers, as far as I can tell, are non-existant. While there are one or two projects in the works, nothing is publicly available or usable. Both Cisco and Intel have iSCSI drivers only for linux. Not even Adaptec, the one that likes to tout its support of the BSD's, has an iSCSI driver for its hardware cards. someone knowledgable needs to get on this pronto; Fibre is such an expensive alternative :-\ -aarong ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rouzer, Charles A (Chuck)" <car@vitalit.com> Date: Mon, 9 Dec 2002 19:39:26 -0500 To: <freebsd-cluster@FreeBSD.ORG> Subject: Re: sharing files within a cluster > > Shared SCSI would probably be the way to go in this situation. iSCSI > (not sure of driver status) and vinum should enable software RAID mirroring > of file systems over a network providing you fail-over capabilities without > shared SCSI. > > > > You are wanting a single-system-image cluster.
