iSCSI Commands 241
User Guidelines
• The aging mechanism checks session activity in a group of N TCP iSCSI connections. In the worst
case, when all 256 sessions are monitored and are not terminated gracefully, the existing mechanism
causes inaccuracy: the last group of monitored iSCSI sessions ages out after (256/N)*aging-time.
• In general, the higher number of ungracefully terminated iSCSI TCP connections, the higher the
aging inaccuracy is.
Example
The following example displays the iSCSI sessions.
