I’m happy that this is coming to linux (I believe Nutanix has a great method to expose storage over IPs), but I would have liked if this was a bit more project/dependence agnostic.

This seems like a win for almost all distros

So this is a service aimed at exposing disks as nvme-tcp boot targets on boot of the system? I mean I love it, I wonder if this could be used to help with a chicken and egg problem I’ve had with building clustered systems easier. So far I either need a running service to host a network file system (like NFS or CEPH), or I need local disks that bootstrap the clustered storage environment.

Not compelling to me. Gonna stick with runit and/or s6 on my Artix Linux systems at home. But you do you Lennart.
