RE: SCSI-Target ID in ISCSI

["ERICKSON,SHAWN (HP-Roseville,ex1)" <shawn_erickson@hp.com>]

Not sure I follow... it this array wanting to act as a JBOD or some type of
RAID device?

In other words are clients expecting to connect to your array at its IP
address and talk to a logical unit identified by a LUN, with the LU being
synthesized by hardware in the array out of one or more of the internal SCSI
disks?

Or are they expecting to talk with the individual SCSI disks in the "array"
over iSCSI?
