Q: There is currently no website under http://jscsi.org?

A: That's correct, we are just refactoring all of our disy-projects including the website. Since the websites were outdated by far anyhow, the information was of no value. We will release a new one end of april. In the meantime, please refer to the documents linked in the readme, the sourcecode and the testcases or contact the mailinglist: [email protected] .


Q: Is there a Mailinglist?

A: Just revitalised: https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/mailman/listinfo/jscsi . I try to make at least a monthly summary about the project on the list.


Q: Where is the executable?

A: jSCSI is a java-library implementing the iSCSI-RFC (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3720.txt). Applications utilizing this library should have the ability to either utilize the functionality of an initiator or a target whereas only the target runs as daemon process at the moment. So, there is not really an executable since this is a library.


Q: I found the same project on sourceforge, what about this jSCSI?

A: The one on sourceforge was the former one. Everything was transferred over here, the sourceforge-location is only present since sourceforge don't want to delete projects.


Q: How can I run jSCSI?

A: Depends: The initiator runs as a library only: You have to write Java Code to access it. The configuration for the initiator ist given over an XML storing any settings about accessing targets. The XML is validated against an XSD all located in the bundles/initiator/src/main/resources . See the test cases for concrete implementation details. The target runs at the moment as standalone daemon also getting all configurations from a configuration stored under bundles/target/src/main/resources .
