I am trying to run on a SAN or Cluster environment which requires support for this reserve/release command. If not then are there any plans to support reserve/release SCSI command so that sg driver can provide these options for its users in its open/close function It will make all I/O operation with sg driver more reliable especially in data storage area. -- Thanks -Sachin ----------------------------------- Sachin Sant Linux Technology Center IBM Software Lab Bangalore, INDIA. sachinp@in.ibm.com Ph: 91-80-5044647 -----------------------------------
