" or just reject it like server error" I thought reject (0x6f) is used only when the target receives - a message with format error - a digest error. Am i missing something here or have i misunderstood this. > However, this will not give indication of the situation as described by > Mark. > I aggree with Yaron to give a better resolution error message depending on the scenerio. Today according to iSCSI revision 05 draft from Julian, it looks like two status codes are looking appropriate in the login response(0x43) 0x205 which means " Target Conflict" ==> this means target is in use by another Initiator and doesnot support Multiple initiators". 0x300 which means " Target Error" == > this means error occurred in iSCSI target( out of resources... etc). I think first one corresponds to the scenario " The Target is busy with another Initiator and cannot handle another one" The second one corresponds to " Case of simple device and target has reached the limit of its initiator capacity (out of resources)." IMO, May be splitting into two examples is better here.
