StarWind Software

I have to ask this question. My current setup is a Winows Server 2003 target and a Linux initiator. Can or does StarWind have the ability to handle more than one initiator? If so, what configuration would need to be changed for each initiator? From doing a search, the answer to this question seems to be a 'no' and that MetaSAN with StarWind would work but I have to ask. Thank you iun advance.

You're asking a question you already know the answer for And the answer is NO. NEVER. Neither StarWind nor any other iSCSI target nor any other SAN software/hadware will do what you want. Use MetaSAN, Sanbolic MelioFS or DataPlow's SFS or any other SAN-capable file system or extra arbiter.

Okay, just checking. I have a bad habit of 2nd guessing myself. Thank you.

Better ask twice then do something wrong multiple times
