4 High-Rely iSCSI Connector Software
The software allows easy configuration and management of iSCSI connected NetSwap/RAIDFrame
Plus devices. It allows connection and safe removal of iSCSI hard drives to insure data safety.
Safely removing the hard drive before physically removing the drive from the NetSwap/RAIDFrame
Plus is important to insure that any cached data is written to the drive. Otherwise data corruption can
occur.
The software consists of a High-Rely iSCSI Connector Service (a Windows service) to manage
automatically connecting and reconnecting iSCSI attached NetSwap/RAIDFrame Plus hard drives and
the High-Rely iSCSI Connector Admin program that allows you to connect and safely remove
NetSwap/RAIDFrame Plus iSCSI hard drives and to configure the High-Rely iSCSI Connector
Windows service to automatically connect and reconnect NetSwap/RAIDFrame Plus iSCSI hard
drives.
The software is compatible with Windows XP SP2+, Server 2003 SP2+, 2008, Vista, and Windows 7.
It is not compatible with Windows 2000, XP without SP2 or Server 2003 without SP2.
This software is not a replacement for the Microsoft iSCSI Initiator. It works with the iSCSI
Initiator to make sure disks are reconnected if connection is lost or disks are swapped and allows
safe removal of the disks.
Note that you must have administrator privileges to install and run this program.
