+@subsection Sheepdog disk images
+
+Sheepdog is a distributed storage system for QEMU. It provides highly
+available block level storage volumes that can be attached to
+QEMU-based virtual machines.
+
+You can create a Sheepdog disk image with the command:
+@example
+qemu-img create sheepdog:@var{image} @var{size}
+@end example
+where @var{image} is the Sheepdog image name and @var{size} is its
+size.
+
+To import the existing @var{filename} to Sheepdog, you can use a
+convert command.
+@example
+qemu-img convert @var{filename} sheepdog:@var{image}
+@end example
+
+You can boot from the Sheepdog disk image with the command:
+@example
+qemu sheepdog:@var{image}
+@end example
+
+You can also create a snapshot of the Sheepdog image like qcow2.
+@example
+qemu-img snapshot -c @var{tag} sheepdog:@var{image}
+@end example
+where @var{tag} is a tag name of the newly created snapshot.
+
+To boot from the Sheepdog snapshot, specify the tag name of the
+snapshot.
+@example
+qemu sheepdog:@var{image}:@var{tag}
+@end example
+
+You can create a cloned image from the existing snapshot.
+@example
+qemu-img create -b sheepdog:@var{base}:@var{tag} sheepdog:@var{image}
+@end example
+where @var{base} is a image name of the source snapshot and @var{tag}
+is its tag name.
+
+If the Sheepdog daemon doesn't run on the local host, you need to
+specify one of the Sheepdog servers to connect to.
+@example
+qemu-img create sheepdog:@var{hostname}:@var{port}:@var{image} @var{size}
+qemu sheepdog:@var{hostname}:@var{port}:@var{image}
+@end example

+@node disk_images_iscsi
+@subsection iSCSI LUNs
+
+iSCSI is a popular protocol used to access SCSI devices across a computer
+network.
+
+There are two different ways iSCSI devices can be used by QEMU.
+
+The first method is to mount the iSCSI LUN on the host, and make it appear as
+any other ordinary SCSI device on the host and then to access this device as a
+/dev/sd device from QEMU. How to do this differs between host OSes.
+
+The second method involves using the iSCSI initiator that is built into
+QEMU. This provides a mechanism that works the same way regardless of which
+host OS you are running QEMU on. This section will describe this second method
+of using iSCSI together with QEMU.
+
+In QEMU, iSCSI devices are described using special iSCSI URLs
+
+@example
+URL syntax:
+iscsi://[<username>[%<password>]@@]<host>[:<port>]/<target-iqn-name>/<lun>
+@end example
+
+Username and password are optional and only used if your target is set up
+using CHAP authentication for access control.
+Alternatively the username and password can also be set via environment
+variables to have these not show up in the process list
+
+@example
+export LIBISCSI_CHAP_USERNAME=<username>
+export LIBISCSI_CHAP_PASSWORD=<password>
+iscsi://<host>/<target-iqn-name>/<lun>
+@end example
+
+Howto set up a simple iSCSI target on loopback and accessing it via QEMU:
+@example
+This example shows how to set up an iSCSI target with one CDROM and one DISK
+using the Linux STGT software target. This target is available on Red Hat based
+systems as the package 'scsi-target-utils'.
+
