@Dronab Welcome to the Rockstor community. As to iscsi we do have an issue open on that currently:
opened 03:50PM - 28 Apr 15 UTC
Major Feature
I've been getting more than a few e-mails centered around this feature. From wha… t I am gathering, the main usecase is to provide iSCSI targest to VM platforms like Xen or VMWare. I wonder if NFS cannot be used instead of iSCSI. It would also be helpful to know other usecases(databases maybe?), if any for which iSCSI is a clear winner over NFS or Samba.
To those of you up-voting this feature, it would be very helpful if you could also answer these two questions
1. How do you plan to use iSCSI, if supported?
2. What are your performance expectations, if any?
3. Are there any specifics of the functionality you'd like to elaborate on?

though I thing Rockstor as an iscsi initiator is probably more likely first.
If you have any compelling arguments on iscsi you are most welcome to share them here, say in the following forum thread or in the above issue.
The forum thread that iscsi issue was opened from can be found at:
Hi, I see iSCSI mentioned in certain places around the Rockstor website (http://rockstor.com/faq.html ), but can’t see any options for it on my test install. Is it something that’s on the horizon?Duncan
Your offer on the Russian translation is most generous and would be best mentioned in the following forum thread Any ideas on the translations which in turn links to our open issue on how we are to go about implementing translation in the first place.

Thanks for your interest in Rockstor and hopefully the above links will give an indication of where we are on these things.
