This chapter describes how to configure Common Multiprotocol SCSI TARget, or COMSTAR, a software framework that enables you to convert any Oracle Solaris 11 Express host into a SCSI target device that can be accessed over a storage network by initiator hosts.
This means you can take a system with storage devices and make those devices available to Linux, MacOS, or Windows client systems as if they were local storage devices. Supported storage protocols are iSCSI, FC, iSER, or SRP.
For information about the Solaris iSNS support, see Chapter 15, Configuring and Managing the Solaris Internet Storage Name Service (iSNS).
For information about using the iSCSI boot features that are available in this release, go to the following site:

For troubleshooting Solaris iSCSI configuration problems, see Troubleshooting iSCSI Configuration Problems.
