Hello
I am trying to get starwind up and running with esx 3.5. I have installed starwind and configured a diskbridge0 which is a 2TB volume.

Issues
1. when using disk management. logical disk manager fails to operate.
2. When i go to my computer the 2TB volume shows as e drive but with no capicity shown and also get access denied when trying to access it.
3. iqn.xxx.x.x.x. from the esx server shows in starwind management console but from the esx server the storage is not shown.
4. The name given to the diskbridge is avsan0301 but the log file shows
Login request: target 'avsan03store' does not exists.?????? this was previous creation which was removed.

I have starwind installed on w2k3r2.

Hello.
The disk that is exported as DiskBridge target can be accessible only for 1 machine. So, if the target is connected to remote machine it is inaccessible for the local machine.

To give you answers for other questions we must analyze log files first.
Please zip and send us logs from StarWind installation directory.
Thank you for the patience.
