iSCSI Configuration for Microsoft Windows
This section describes how to install and configure these iSCSI initiators for
Microsoft Windows:

Configuration Notes
•
On Windows XP and Windows 2003 operating systems, Microsoft does not
support "dynamic" disks for use with the Microsoft iSCSI initiator. Adaptec
recommends using the QLogic QLA4050/4052, which supports “dynamic disks”,
or using only "basic" disks with the Microsoft initiator to avoid unexpected
behavior and possible data loss when using the MS initiator to connect to iSCSI
targets in your iSCSI Storage Appliance.
•
Choose to install the Microsoft MPIO driver during iSCSI initiator installation.
