Right now, I found that Windows Failover Cluster needs SCSI-3
Persistent Reservation, I don't know where if virtio-scsi supports
this, according to http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Virtio-SCSI I found
this:
limited flexibility: virtio-blk does not support all possible storage
scenarios. For example, it does not allow SCSI passthrough or
persistent reservations. In principle, virtio-scsi provides anything
that the underlying SCSI target (be it physical storage, iSCSI or the
in-kernel target) supports.
virtio-blk does not support persistent reservations, but virtio-scsi
may surpport.
Another web page which archive mail lists
http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg01813.html, which request
virtio-scsi to implement SPC-3 (persistent reservation) feature, but I
can't found any more information about this.
