Yes, I use tgt with Windows XP (initiator 2.08). When Windows finds an unknown device and ask you where you see for the driver. Then you need to tell Windows that you want to do nothing about the driver. > I have tested within WindowsXP and Windows2003, after iSCSI Logon, the > "IET Controller" (LUN 0) will be displayed in "Other unknown devices" > in "Device Manager"; while the "IET Virtual Disk" (LUN 1) displayed as > known device in "Disk Drives" category, which is the same as logon > from IET; > but at this time the "IET Virtual Disk" volume didn't appear in the > "Disk Management", thus not usable, My Windows shows "IET Virtual Disk" volume in the "Disk Management": http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tomo/tgt/xp.jpg It's Japanese edition but I guess that you see how it can work for me. > However, disable the "IET Controller" or uninstall it both cannot make > the "IET Virtual Disk" appear into "Disk Management", I have no idea > how to debug this problem, I never read the SCSI standards, maybe > "microsoft iscsi" didn't conform standards to handle this type of > device, Well, iSCSI is one of SCSI transports. It should not be related with this issue.

That's really bad and stupid move in my opinion. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stgt" in the body of a message to majordomo at vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html |
