Dynamic scsi_debug module
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Is it possible to use the scsi_debug module to create more than one device? It seems to me that it needs rewritten to have an interface to dynamically create devices and set their parameters with a tool like losetup, rather than using module parameters.
I found some references to being able to load certain modules multiple times using modprobe -o, but this option does not seem to exist.

The question is how much sense it makes to invest in scsi_debug now that we have the LIO target in the kernel?

Thanks, I hadn't heard of this. It looks interesting, though a bit complicated.

Just FYI, a 'apt-get install targetcli' should set you up with everything on the user-space side required to run LIO target + associated fabric drivers.
