I dont follow - how do you want to share your fc storage over iscsi?
And what are these nodes? Storage nodes? Hypervisors?
Nir
The initial idea was to share FC over IP network. All nodes are ovirt
nodes (hypervisors).
One node see the FC storage share as a block device. Take this block
device and share it over iscsi to node[2].
The node[2] will see the block device and create a new FC target to use
it itself...
I know, its science fiction...
After reading a bit on the subject another solution would be FCoE vn2vn
but this probably requires hardware.
Specific switches with DCB and FIP snooping which i don't have.
Any idea to extend FC to nodes without FC HBAs is welcome.
