“The developer of IET is also helping to develop Linux
SCSI target framework (stgt) which looks like it might lead to an
iSCSI target implementation with an upstream kernel component.
iSCSI Target can be useful:

“a] To setup stateless server / client (used in diskless
setups).
b] Share disks and tape drives with remote client over LAN, Wan or
the Internet.
c] Setup SAN – Storage array.
d] To setup loadbalanced webcluser using cluster aware Linux file
system etc.”
