Hello

I downloaded StarWind trail version and installed on Windows 2003 R2,
also created two Windows 2008 R2 to test StarWind, first Windows 2008 successfully connected StarWind, but secondary Windows 2008 unsuccessfully connect to StarWind. If I disconnect the first connection, the secondary can connect to StarWind.

Is it cannot edit connection limt ?

Thanks !

No it's not. Most likely you've created target as "Clustered=No" so to protect your volumes we're blocking more then one concurrent connection to the same volume. To avoid the situation discussed here:

To deal with hypervisors (ESX, Hyper-V & Xen), clusters (MS Cluster, Oracle, SAP and Linux clusters) and cluster-capable file systems (GFS, MelioFS and SFS) and distributed lock managers (MetaSAN & SANmp) you need to create target with clustered access enabled.
