Symptom:

Problem:   I have multiple users connected to a LUN.  When I change a file in the LUN, other users cannot see the changes.

Solution:

This is normal since ISCSI targets are block-based and not file-based. Changes made by one person are not seen by other users working on the same LUN.

Additional information:
