ZFS as iscsi

ZFS AS iSCSI TARGET

Well,

This is very interesting that we can use our zfs system as iscsi server

I had just created a 100m zfs FS for iscsi testing

root@sol-test-1:>/# zfs create -V 100M zm1/scsivol2

root@sol-test-1:>/# zfs share zm1/scsivol2

cannot share 'zm1/scsivol2': 'shareiscsi' property not set

set 'shareiscsi' property or use iscsitadm(1M) to share this volume

root@sol-test-1:>/# zfs set shareiscsi=on zm1/scsivol2
