First lets understand iSCSI
iSCSI is Internet SCSI (Small Computer System Interface), an Internet Protocol (IP)-based storage networking standard for linking data storage facilities.
Bu carrying SCSI commands over IP networks, iSCSI is used to facilitate data transfers over intranets and to manage storage over long distances.
iSCSI can be used to transmit data over local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), or the Internet and can enable location-independent data storage and retrieval.
iSCSI is one of two main approaches to storage data transmission over IP networks; the other method, Fibre Channel over IP, translates Fibre Channel control codes and data into IP packets for transmission between distant Fibre Channel SANs.
Sunstar offer a selection of manufacturers utilizing iSCSI in order to build a SAN.
Please follow this link to a selection of vendors?
Some of the storage manufacturers have built in tools - other in essence offer purely an iSCSI connection.
