Re: hp proliant dl 185 g5 & ISCSI

thanks for answer, but i think , that isnt the right software for me, because hp is writing, that this microsoft / hp iscsi target is only running on an microsoft storage server 200x.
i am using an windows 2008 enterprise server. so i think, that i have to use an 3rd party iscsi target software ??
i thougt, that hp has an proliant version of an iscsi target ?? thanks, gustl
