Thanks, the whole iSCSI LUN have been passed to the VM.
But I test it with scsicmd, and found that the driver may be not
support SPC-3, but if i use this by microsoft iscsi initiator, I can
pass all the scsi3_test tests.
Tool can be found here:
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH72086
It's this means that the scsi passthrough windows driver does not
support SPC-3 feature, I have read a post about this, it says if
support this we should change both the implementation and the
documents in virtio spec.
I am new to this list, so I don't know what is the situation right now?
Would somebody please give me some advise on it?
