Subject:  iSCSI: Creation of new LUNs





What is the recommended/approved way of announcing the availability
of new LUNs in the target ? Currently I can do the following, but if
it isn't explicitly documented, implementors tend to do their own
things (causing interoperability problems)

Upon creation/deletion of a LUN in the target, a target shall generate
an asynchronous notification with  the SCSI event indicator set to
either 2 or 4, followed by sense data with appropriate ASC and ASCQ
indicating that LUNs have changed. The initiator, on receipt of this
notification will issue a REPORT_LUN command to get a list of LUNs.
