Consider for RHEL 7 since this is most likely verification-only. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1919057 +++ Description of problem: This is a request to support using fence_mpath and fence_scsi to manage SCSI persistent reservations on SPC-4-compliant devices. Both of these fence agents use the sg_persist command to manage reservations and keys. The `sg_persist(8)` man page suggests that it's compatible with SPC-4, so this probably only requires QA verification. ----- Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fence-agents-mpath-4.2.1-53.el8_3.1 fence-agents-scsi-4.2.1-53.el8_3.1 ----- How reproducible: N/A ----- Steps to Reproduce: Test fence_mpath and fence_scsi fence agents managing SCSI persistent reservations on SPC-4-compliant devices. ----- Expected results: All tests pass -- that is, the agents behave the same with SPC-4 as with SPC-3 (currently supported). --- Additional comment from Reid Wahl on 2021-01-22 02:01:25 UTC --- Thread: - http://post-office.corp.redhat.com/archives/sbr-clusterha/2020-June/msg00059.html Someone asked me about this today, and I realized I never opened the BZ. --- Additional comment from Reid Wahl on 2021-01-22 02:04:16 UTC --- Thoughts on cloning this for RHEL 7? Generally speaking, RFEs are a no-go. I ask because this is most likely verification-only. --- Additional comment from Oyvind Albrigtsen on 2021-01-22 12:37:17 UTC --- You can clone it to RHEL7, and just add "Consider for RHEL7" to the top of the description.
