Re: iSCSI: login issue - partial consensus call

Eddy,

Two comments -

- In a reboot-after-a-crash scenario (one case where the implicit
session
  logout - aka option A - would be useful), initiator may not have any 
  old session state including the TSID.

- Current formulation is that TSIDs are not really guaranteed to be 
  unique per initiator, nor even among multiple sessions with the same
  initiator (if each is to a different target portal group).

Hope that helps.
