Software Installation
The goal of this portion of the installation is to create a software connection
between the initiator (your file server) and the target (the xStack Storage
device). You will power on all of the devices, verify a valid IP connection
between the initiator and target and then complete the iSCSI connection.
Once this is completed, you can then treat the xStack Storage device like
any other hard drive through the disk management utility found in Microsoft
Windows.
Note: This example uses Microsoft iSCSI Intiator version 2.0.
1. Power on the unit by pressing the power switch button identified in figures
on page 6 and 7. You will now hear the unit power up and initialize. The
initialization process will require five minutes to complete. After waiting,
then please proceed with the next step.
2. Validate your connection between the file server and the xStack Storage
device. Please open a DOS window or Command Prompt within the
Windows operating system of your file server. Use the command "ping
192.168.2.1" to verify that you have a valid connection. Below is an example
of a valid connection.
