<<What is difference between the words 'Device' and 'Target'?>>
The SCSI device has a target, at least one LUN, and at least one
device server. The Target has an address and capability to pass stuff to at
least one LUN but no device server.
<<How
significant of a difference is there between the phrases
- "a SCSI device for each port" and
- "a SCSI target for each port">>
Not very to the main point I was making. I focused on SCSI device due
to the subject of the thread. However SCSI device conveys the original
issue in my mind of the shared device server (e.g. R/W media) between the
two SCSI devices (ported by the two targets).
