Hi there,

I feel silly here, but I can't seem to get our Hyper-V virtual machine (Windows Server 2008 box) to connect to our Tape Redirector target. I have tried to use iSCSI Intiator to Discover the Target Portal with the IP address and port of the server hosting Tape Redirector and keep getting "Add Target Portal Error - Target Error." It seems like I am overlooking something or missing something simple here. Any direction would be much appreciated!

Firewall is open on Server running Tape Redirector and no AV software at the moment running to cause conflict.

Thanks in advance!

I also installed it today for the first time. After 3 hours of messing around I'm glad I don't give up because I discovered the default port is 33268, not the usual 3260. You can find this information on the configuration page. Try setting that port in iscsi initiator and you should see your tape drive.
