Re: Status of iSER support.
Hello Peter,
Thank you for your answer.
The problem is that i would like to use the feature in a production
environment and can not rely on out of tree patches.
In regard to my question i conclude the following:
- There is currently no support for iSER storage objects in libvirt.
- There will not be support for iSER storage objects in the next few
libvirt releases.
Which for me, at least at the moment, means dropping iSER/IB, using
iSCSI/TCP/IPoIB and loosing some performance or using a commercially
available hypervisor.
Kind regards,
David

It's fairly recent so you can give it a try and ideally provide a
'Tested-by:'. I don't have a RDMA setup handy so I can't test it and
thus can provide a code-only review.
In case of iSCSI storage pools I don't think that anybody is working on
iser support.
