Re: StarWind 3.5.5 crashes w/ image file target & MS Initiator

It turns out I had numerous network issues apparently not related to StarWind. To make a long story short - I ended up replacing my switch, router, and NICs. And tweaked the NIC settings on both ends for jumbo frames and maxed out the transmit and recieve buffers. :cry: Now it appears to be running ...

Re: StarWind 3.5.5 crashes w/ image file target & MS Initiator

I let a full windows PC complete backup (~100GB) run on on my vista sp 1 to vista sp1 config with ms initiator and it did crash again. Attached is the log. I will send it in to e-mail as well.

Files were attached to the original post. I downloaded them and sent via e-mail as well.

BTW, I ran similar tests last night using w2k3 EE and I didn't have the same issue. I have to try with a bigger file to replicate the same test but will do so and post a reply.

Thank you.

StarWind 3.5.5 crashes w/ image file target & MS Initiator

When used in conjunction with the Microsoft iSCSI Initiato...
