I seem to recall that CRN was added as something that SAM-2 had invented and hence iSCSI had to carry. Given the inconsistent state of its support and no serious request of the form "have to have CRN or else something really important breaks", I think the right thing to do is take CRN out, and reserve the field that carried it in case we have to put it back, especially if the argument for CRN involves T10 changing its definition (we should let T10 figure this out first). LUN-specific mode pages for iSCSI are a non-starter, and if CRN requires them, iSCSI is unlikely to ever support CRN. Unless there's a pointed objection to this, Julian should take this message as an instruction to remove CRN from the iSCSI draft. The issues regarding CRN usage/behavior across FC/iSCSI need to get written up in the bridge/gateway draft that's being prepared.
