Blue Screen Of Death on Win7 + [ other iSCSI target ]
Posted: Tue May 25, 2010 8:51 am
Hi there,
I have a friend trying out StarPort with [ other iSCSI target ]. He has created two LUN's (each stored on its own RAID1 mirror array). He has then created two targets and connected to then over two separate gigabit network links.
(See attached image).
He has the following behaviour:
"I don't know what Starport is all about, but I couldn't get it to do
diddly squat without either panicking (Driver fail) or BSODding the
machine regularly.
First of all, I created the two RAID1 arrays on [ other iSCSI target ] and created two
targets.
Then I tried to use Starport to make a RAID0, it asked me to pick the
first iSCSI drive for the array, I tried to use one of the targets on
one IP, "Driver fail". Much BSODding followed.
Any ideas? The closest I got with Starport was it ###### at me that
the target had already been added, even though I was trying to use the
2nd adapter IP for the 2nd disk, followed by another "Driver Failure"
error, followed by a BSOD when I tried to disconnect it. (Even tho it
claimed to fail the RAID0 bit, when it went back to the starport main
dialog, it was trying to connect to multiple iSCSI targets)."
He is using Windows 7 64bit as his desktop operating system.
He can happily connect to the volumes individually using the MS Software Initiator.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I am loosing credibility as it was me that suggested he try StarPort out.
Best regards
TFZ
