[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: iSCSI: Logout needs ISIDJulian- A target that does not support multiple connections per session will return "Initiator SID Error" when the login attempt is made. In this case, there is no way to log in, so there's no way to log out the old connection. The initiator would be stuck waiting until the target's side of the connection times out and goes away, which could be a very long time. There is an open question within the MIB team about whether anyone needs to be able to kill connections or sessions from SNMP; however, I don't think that anyone will want to use SNMP as part of error recovery. -- Mark julian_satran@il.ibm.com wrote: > > Josh, > > No command, including logout, can be sent without a login. > The complete scenario is: > > -open a new connection > -login in the same session as the old connection (this has the ISID & TSID) > -logout the old connection > -recover commands > > You are not supposed to be able to kill a session from outside (at least > not an iSCSI defined mode). > You will need management support for that (SNMP?) > > Regards, > Julo > > Joshua Tseng <jtseng@NishanSystems.com> on 14/03/2001 17:09:48 > > Please respond to Joshua Tseng <jtseng@NishanSystems.com> > > To: Julian Satran/Haifa/IBM@IBMIL, ips@ece.cmu.edu > cc: > Subject: RE: iSCSI: Logout needs ISID > > Julian, > > In 2.14, you state that a logout command can be > sent on a different connection to destroy a single- > connection iSCSI session.
