Erez,

Not only it is allowed, it the way authors have envisioned separation 
through masking in iSCSI.
Unfortunately the mechanism is coarse grain and does not extend to 
applications (at least not in the common OSs) but it is available today.

[Ips] Multiple IQNs for a single iSCSI initiator (for XEN)






Hi,

We'd like to run an iSCSI initiator on XEN on dom0. It will login for
each VM with a different IQN. The LUs for each VM will be visible for
that VM only. My questions are:

    * We didn't find anything against that in the iSCSI spec. Is it
      really ok to do that?
    * This question is for the open-iscsi community - what is required
      in order to implement that in open-iscsi? Is there any plan to do
      that?


Thanks,
--
