Benoire 10 · ID: 1 Posted April 17, 2015 I've got an issue with sharing a iSCSI LUN as the drive. I've I map it to the LUN as a block device, I can create it but I cannot share it and no client can connect. If I create a thin provisioned file, then it all works as normal. Is this an issue with the boot system or just likely to be a problem at my end? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benoire 10 · ID: 3 Posted April 17, 2015 That's a shame, thanks though. I was hoping to use block based LUNs for full speed for certain applications, will just have to use file based instead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also you can use NFS Shares which gives you an IO-Advantage over iSCSI. so, just of curiosity - what kind of "applications" are in need of blocked based LUNs ?
