Internet SCSI (iSCSI) is a network protocol that allows you to use
of the SCSI protocol over TCP/IP networks. It is good alternative to
Fibre Channel-based SANs. You can easily manage, mount and format iSCSI
Volume under Linux. It allows access to SAN storage over Ethernet.
Open-iSCSI project is a high-performance, transport independent,
multi-platform implementation of iSCSI. Open-iSCSI is partitioned into
user and kernel parts.

The iscsi package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol,
as well as the utility programs used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol
for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over Internet
Protocol networks. This package is available under Redhat Enterprise
Linux / CentOS / Fedora Linux and can be installed using yum / apt-get
command.
