Oh!   I guess I read through everything you wrote too fast! :-)   I hope they get it right, and I also hope that when they get it working it will work with things such as FreeNAS, as that could lower my electricity bill.

Like I said, that isn't true, I misread the documentation, actually I was reading the wrong document :)

But when I tried to launch the initiator on CHIMPY, it crashed, hard. Took out the box and rebooted.

Then again, I suppose this is what field tests are for :)

Alas, CHIMP is an Alpha, and the iSCSI kit is only supported on I64. I will potentially try to do an upgrade on RHESUS this weekend - I'll let you guys know how I got along..

BLEEP!!!!   Alpha support for iSCSI was supposed to be in V8.4.   I would say this is what happen when you dump most of VMS engineering and outsouce the work.
