Did you mean initiators?

I may be confused, but I think iSCSI targets just act like disk drives,
or FC LUNs.  OpenGFS is not really needed to manage adding in extra
targets/drives/LUNs.

In fact, OpenGFS would require EVMS or Pool to manage all the multiple
targets/drives/LUNs.

If your not using ogfs, you could also use LVM1 or LVM2.

If you do need to use ogfs, I would consider using the User Space
implementation of the nfs server.

I would think that using the kernel space implementation is much more
likely to have bugs.
