Can I dynamically expose an entire SCSI host over Fibre Channel, preferably in Linux

Is it possible to expose an entire SCSI host dynamically (an LSI HBA or RAID card) over Fibre Channel, if so how?

Preferably on Linux (perhaps targetcli) and with disk hotplugging support. (i.e. unplug/replug a disk in the target and the initiator sees the change)

My FC HBAs are two QLogic QLA2462 cards.


Sure you can do that. Good summary is here:

Some good play with SCST instead of a default LIO is here (uses QLogic HBAs):

In a nutshell: You can expose any physical or virtual block device as FC target.
