    iscsi: unsolicited data question



    I have a question which has been asked before, but I couldn't find a direct 
    answer in the archive.  The table on page 200 of draft 12 doesn't directly
    answer this question either.
    
    The first paragraph on page 36 of draft 12 says "Targets operate in either 
    solicitied (R2T) data mode or unsolicited (non R2T) data mode."
    tells me that a target, at all times during a data sequence transfer, can be
    
    one or the other, but not both (non R2T for the initial data out, R2T for
    the
    remaining data).  Is this correct?
    
    Thanks,
    Dennis

    " Hi Julian 
    Sorry if I'm covering old ground... Is it possible to use unsolicited data
    for the first burst and then request any remaining data using R2T? For
    example, if the target has a previously allocated buffer available (length
    defined by FirstBurstSize) for unsolicited data, then once the initiator has
    sent unsolicited data up to and including this amount then the remaining
    data (if any) can be requested using R2T once the target has the buffer
    space available.
