Re: target reset

["Julian Satran" <Julian_Satran@il.ibm.com>]

the meaning is the one of the SAM reset LUN. Clear Task set is different. Julo

Sorry for being obtuse, but I don't understand your response.

Are you saying 'yes, cancel all operations == clear task set
description'
- or -
'yes, the statement has another meaning'

    That is a SAM issue that we don't want to touch!

    On page 148 of draft 12-97, in the paragraph ...
    
    "For the TARGET WARM RESET and TARGET COLD RESET functions, the
    target
    cancels all pending operations.  Both functions are equivalent to
    the
    Target Reset function specified by [SAM2].  They can affect many
    other
    initiators"
    
    In these cases, SAM2 refers to Logical Unit Reset, which refers to
    Aborting Tasks.
    
    This implies to me that TARGET RESET (WARM or COLD) is equivalent to
    CLEAR TASK SET.  The behavior in the iSCSI draft for CLEAR TASK SET
    is
    fairly well described.  Is the
    description presented in the discussion on CLEAR TASK SET supposed
    to
    define "cancels all pending operations?"  Or does this statement
    have
    another meaning?
