[nfsv4] SCSI RDMA Protocol - 2 headed for public review

[Joe Breher <[e-mail]>]

I am piggybacking on this in order to provide the following notice of a tangentially-related development.

INCITS T10 has balloted to forward INCITS 551-201x - Information technology - SCSI RDMA Protocol - 2 (SRP - 2) for further processing towards public review. This milestone is an indication that the T10 committee believes the technical content of this draft standard to be complete and correct. Anyone with an interest in this draft standard may want to be alert for an announcement of the public review period opening by ANSI.

The latest SRP-2 draft standard srp2r06.pdf is available on the t10.org <http://t10.org/> website.

That is all.

Chuck and I have discussed what we feel are the high-priority topics for discusion at the meeting.   This has resulted in the (incomplete) preliminary agenda below.   I'd like to hear from:

If there are too many to fit, the working group can express its priorities.  If we still wind up with available time when IETF105 rolls around, we can open up the meeting for whatever people would like to bring up.

The assumption is that the bis RFC document will be based  on draft-ietf-nfsv4-rfc5661-msns-update (NFS Version 4.1 Update for Multi-Server Namespace) coverted, as the IESG appears to want, into a bis-like format but that the following additional changes would need to be added:
> Updates to reflect the changes Tom made to pNFS mapping type requirements in RFC8434.

Time zones can be a drag, but it is well worth considering remote presentation if you have something you think the working group needs to hear
