Re: iSCSI VTL + IBM i iSCSI support

Hello Diego,

"As users look to adopt cloud for HA/DR, failover and backup, we’ve now made this possible for DSI VTL and IBM i. On November 30th, the IBM i team added iSCSI software support to IBM i 7.2 and 7.3, allowing the operating system to use a standard Ethernet connection to attach tape and tape library devices."

That’s really cool! Was an RFE from me, but for adding cheap NAS appliances for tiered object storage. I’m very curious if IBM only supports tapes or also disks. And if the 522 Bytes/sector thing still applies.

Anybody knows if this will be delivered in a (cumulative) PTF package, or more like a TR?

:wq! PoC
