Support for 16Gb/s Fibre Channel LPe16000 series and FCoE hardware using target mode versions of the OneConnect FCoE CNAs is included. Documented for use with RHEL/CentOS 6.x based distributions, ocs_fc_scst works with the stable SCST 2.2.1 as well as the development versions of 2.2.x and 3.0.x. The driver code and documentation are available on the Emulex web site at: http://www.emulex.com/products/onecore-storage-software-development-kit/overview.html Registration is required on the Developer Portal, but this is free. Questions regarding this driver better to ask via the Developer Portal. SCST is SCSI target mode stack for Linux. SCST allows creation of sophisticated storage devices, which provide advanced functionality, like replication, thin provisioning, deduplication, high availability, automatic backup, etc. Majority of recently developed SAN appliances, especially higher end ones, are SCST based. It might well be that your favorite storage appliance running SCST in the firmware.
