<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>There is an question always trouble me ,shall
openstack use Openfiler(iscsi target) as volume service?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Openfiler is a free iscsi software base on
centos use ietd to create iscsi target that can run on a standalone computer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I saw we can use volume_driver="nova.volume.driver.ISCSIDriver"
and cooperating with such as following items to connect ISCSI:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>My question is I could not find the way to
tell volume driver the username and password to access Openfiler for creating
lun.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>So, does it mean openstack could not connect
a independent iscsi target host running tgtd or ietd, just like nexenta?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
