I think I made an error in my suggested wording?





It should be:





 Initiator MUST send a Logout with a reason code of "Close the


 connection" (if using multiple connections) or "Close the


 session" (if not using multiple connections).

     It can also change to:





      Initiator MUST send a Logout with a reason code of "Close the


      connection" or "Close the session".





     Why do we have to close multiple connections, at the iSCSI level, one
     by one?

          Section 3.9.1 says:





           Initiator MUST send a Logout with a reason code of "Close the


           connection" to cleanly shutdown the connection. The initiator


           MAY also issue a Logout with the reason code of "Close the


           session"[ESQ1] , to completely close the session, but ONLY if it
          does


           not support or use multiple connections in the specific


           session.





          I think this should say:





           Initiator MUST send a Logout with a reason code of "Close the


           connection" (if not the only connection) or "Close the session"


           (if using multiple connections).





          Because once you comply with the 1(superscript: st) sentence, you
          would not be able


          To comply with the 2(superscript: nd) sentence.

      [ESQ1] If a target closes the connection and there is only one
     connection, issue two logouts (one to close the connection and one to
     close the session)? But how if you just closed the connection.
