Thread starter agrikk Start date Apr 9, While the licensing is surely something to consider, using Active Directory to control access COULD be pretty nice from an integrated perspective. This is new, the data taht you are looking at is old. It is now a free part of any Windows server. And, consider that your storage could now do other things? I am confused it appears that if you have windows server R2 then you can download the ISCSI target for free, which will basically turn your windows server into Windows storage server , which was a product that was only open to OEM and to Technet for non prod use.
Depends on your needs. Doesn't hurt me. Now it is that much better of an option. Far from an end-all, but a serious consideration.
And with the lock issues I wonder if it'll replicate the file at all? No what i meant is you can setup 2 win hypervisors in a cluster. Then assign storage space as a shared volume to both hypervisors. NFS will work, as long as your Hypervisor supports it, but I can't answer that part of the question. As for using DFS as a poor mans offsite replication, hmm.. I'm guessing the changes would happen to fast for that to be effective.
IIRC NFS isn't "officially" supported for Windows clustering, there are a number of sites out there that do say it's possible, so enter at your risk and lots of testing. Rob: I understand, I was mostly thinking out loud. Select the Target Configuration. You are just a few clicks away before it can be used in ESXi.

Switch to the light mode that's kinder on your eyes at day time. Once that is done you simple take the drive space you have and create volumes in a volume group.
So you may have to flip the two steps. There is a lot of settings here so I would say go with defaults unless you know what you are doing or just want to see what each does. You Must also remember to map the drive to the target.
You can set everything up and forget this and nothing will work. Here is some screen shots of that page. Once this is complete you may need to do some tweaking but it should be able to login to the target using the Windows iSCSI initiator. Not everyone will need a SAN but if you have the extra hardware and want to have the ability to have a redundant, fast, and multiple machine access data store. I would give building a SAN with Openfiler a shot, and no one can beat the price.
