>What we need is two things: Simon. You're not the only person concerned with these types of issues. Pluto ended up performing some serious hackery to the FreeBSD SCSI system in order to get the kind of functionality you require. Unfortunatly, there was a large "time to ship" vs. quality tradeoff on the approach. For this reason, I'm starting to architect a CAM based SCSI system for FreeBSD. I believe that it will handle most of your needs and if not, could be easily extended. I invite you to go read the SCSI CAM documents which are availible at ftp.symbios.com and see if a CAM like architecture will suit your needs. I expect to have a minimal CAM system (SCSI disks only) availible in about 1.5 months. -- Justin T.
