Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-06-26 01:22:53 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2010-07-06 16:43:59 UTC

This is intentional. We don't ship the userspace tools in RHEL either. We recommend iSCSI for network block storage devices.
