As for the target, I wrote a script to test it against both old and new FreeBSD initiators, Linux initiator (Open-iSCSI) and Solaris one; you can find it at tools/regression/iscsi/. I also did manual testing with Windows XP and Windows Vista. I don't remember if I actually succeeded to do any testing with ESX (trying to run ESX under Fusion is not such a good idea, it turns out), but I got a 3rd party report that it worked correctly. As for the initiator, I did manual testing against istgt, LIO (Linux) and COMSTAR (Solaris). > I work on FreeNAS at iXsystems, and we have > found > that iSCSI is a complex protocol, No kidding :-) > and there are interop issues, especially > with VMWare ESX. > Luckily I see that Alexander Motin has been working with you to commit > fixes to the iSCSI code, which help. > > I've rolled an experimental FreeNAS image based on FreeBSD 10 at svn > revision r268201 if you want to give it a try: > > http://download.freenas.org/nightlies/10.0.0/ALPHA/20140703/ For now I'm swamped with work on autofs, but I'd definitely want to redo all the testing before 10.1 - last time I did it was just before 10.0.
