Re: target reset

yes it means cancel all operations - look for the fine differences on cancelling other initiators tasks.
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?
