Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

Well, I installed version 6.0.5189 and requested and installed a current free license, but - much to my surprise - this feature is still blocked. A popup tells: iSNS server was not added correctly. The feature is not allowed by the license. I double-checked the feature list, and iSNS support is chec...

Re: Few wishes

1) Changing this will make it impossible to sort the log.
A better approach would be to include the year as well and use the ISO 8601 style:

Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

It is not impossible, but I do have an iSNS server on-line and you recommend yourself to use it:

Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

Sorry, neither that is possible. Same error message. I even tried manually to edit the config file, but any entry created is just read as 0.0.0.0 by the manager. Do you have an expected date for a future release with the feature enabled? Could I go until then with a trial license? Or sign up for bet...

Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

So is this a bug, or am I just missing something?
Should I wait for version 5.8?

Re: Official position on Intel adapter teaming?

This is an old thread. However, the page referred to at Intel is still up: http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/CS-027892.htm Adapter Teaming using Intel's ANS is not supported for those ports transferring iSCSI traffic. This is due to limitations of the third-party iSCSI target/initi...

Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

I uninstalled the SW server and reinstalled with version 5.7.1733.
No change. iSNS entries cannot be added.

Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

I wish to be able to connect SW to my iSNS server. As you recommend in your Best Practices manual: StarWind fully supports integration with iSNS server. StarWind also registers itself with the iSNS server allowing initiators to easily locate the storage server. Using iSNS greatly simplifies the mana...

Re: SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

Found out the license key was missing. Added the free license key. Now the iSNS entry can neither be modified nor removed. Error message: iSNS server was not added correctly. This feature is not allowed by the license. This, however, doesn't correlate with the comparison sheet: http://www.starwindso...

SW cannot resolve DNS name of iSNS server

I installed MS iSNS Server on the Domain Controller (2003). MS iSCSI Initiator and (of course) nslookup can resolve the IP address of the iSNS Server. However, in SW Management Console configuration, if I try to add an iSNS server by its DNS name, the IP address is not resolved and the address 0.0.0...
