FreeBSD CTL device data/id questions

Hi,

I have a bunch if the dumb (not sarcasm) questions concerning FreeBSD 
CTL layer and iSCSI target management:

- is the "FREEBSD CTLDISK 0001" line that the ctladm lunlist is 
presenting, and that the initiators are seeing as the hwardware id 
hardcoded somewhere, especially the "CTLDISK 0001" part ?

- I am able to change the "FREEBSD" part of the above, but only from the 
configuration file (ctl.conf), but not from the ctladm on the create 
stage (when I'm issuing -o vendor there's no error, and the vendor in 
the devlist changes but not on the lunlist, however, I see changed 
vendors in the lunlist and they come from the config).

- is the desire to change the "FREEBSD CTLDISK 0001" part weird ? I'm 
currently considering it as a part of the production maintenance, but 
I'm not sure. Is there a way to change it without touching the code ?


Thanks.
