[rhelv6-list] scsi-target-utils upgrade?

I'm running a software target using scsi-target-utils 1.0.4 from RHEL
6.0.  I have two initiators attached (VMware ESXi 4.1 software iSCSI).
Does anyone have a best practice on upgrading scsi-target-utils without
taking down both initiators/hosts?

I'd like to upgrade the RPM on my iSCSI storage host, fail the VMs to
one physical host using vMotion, detach and re-attach the other host
(should bring up the new tgtd), then fail the VMs back over using
vMotion, and detach / re-attach the second host making sure a new
instance of tgtd is running in each case.

Has anyone tried this or something similar?
