Hi, I'm not an a PC, but I remember a menu (Remote Client) and then the tgt section (different from the scst section) If the service is already started, you can use the auto-create configuration button and let the Gui to do the work for you.
Then , simple connect the iScsi dev from w2k3. Bye Crippa Andrea |

I assume this was taken earlier, otherwise you wouldn't be seeing devices in next screen shot.
I dont have URL handy, but I've seen it on this forum before.

What kind of backup software are you plan to use ? For Tivoli I know that there is the TSM driver ..... You need to download and install them. Again i'm not on my home PC so i can't give you the ftp address ... maybe you can try a search on the forum or wait this evening ..... ;)
