Hello,
I have just installed Starwind Tape Redirector after being dismayed that Microsoft's iSCSI Target only exposes virtual disks. Wonderful piece of software.

When I add a device>Export tape auto-loader/changer device, I assume that the software is supposed to make BOTH the library AND the drive available at ONE target, because it asks me to select both the library and the drive. However it appears to only export the library. I must go back and export the drive separately, to a separate target no less.

Host: Server 2012 Standard - Guest: Server 2003 R2 SP2 w/ Microsoft iSCSI initiator 2.08

Is this normal behavior? :?: :?:

May I ask you to try to install StarWind iSCSI SAN trial version instead of Tape Redirector and see if it helps?

Thank you
