It is done. My quest to get a scanner to working over iSCSI is complete.

I can now safely claim that Chris on SuperUser is wrong. There is nothing stopping you from having scanners running over a storage network.

This has been one of my dumbest, expensive and time consuming projects.

Just a bunch of scanners (JBOS?)

Can you run scanners over iSCSI?

@xssfox how else would iSCSI tape robots work if not scsi-generic encapsulation?
@jpm I know right! that was always my thinking
@xssfox now I’m thinking about scanner over fibre channel
@jpm maybe when my quarterly tape backups are done
@xssfox @jpm soon to be followed by scanners over NVMe, and scanners over CXL...
