For example, it is now possible to define specific connection/session parameters and have those values remain throughout connection/session failures. Also, the first run of tests with dm-multipath have been compelted successful. I am working on a section within the documentation to describe how these two pieces work together within linux 2.6. Also an important milestone has been reached with v1.0 of the iscsi-initiator-core.org howto located at: http://iscsi-initiator-core.org/mediawiki/index.php/Howto This is a work in progress as data is imported from the ASCII version from iscsi-initiator-core-tools v2.3. This release is now considered stable and no new features will be added until 1.6.2.0-final is released. Thanks! -- Nicholas A.
