Configuring Dynamic Disks to Persistently Reconnect (MS Initiator)
On pre-Vista operating systems, when iSCSI targets are configured as dynamic
disks, the Microsoft iSCSI initiator connecting to the dynamic disk may fail to
connect properly during system boot. Using dynamic disks for iSCSI targets on pre-
Vista operating systems is not supported by Microsoft. For more information, see
the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator User’s Guide, available on the Microsoft web
site.
