On a slightly related topic: is SCSI (not iscsi) considered a reliable protocol?
Yes and No. "SCSI" covers several layers of the ISO networking model. Parallel SCSI transport is reliable.
If yes, why would you wanna run a reliable protocol inside another reliable protocol (TCP)?
Think of SCSI command protocol more like NFS: Just a way to send commands/data to a "storage device". grant
