scsi "stack"

[Sergey Akifiev_1]

Pls, tell me, how does LVM/Securepath/scsi drivers are stacked on each other? and in SAN environment?
my guess is: sdisk driver(s) manages different paths to SCSI LUNs, then goes securepath and at last LVM ontop of securepath.
Am i right?

The stack in 11iv3 is totally different than the predecessors, but this is the future.

Read it!

It describes the current stack of 11.31 and it compares it to the stack until 11.23.

BTW, 11.31 is present.
