Wizards To support creation and management of iSCSI targets, virtual disks, and snapshots, the iSCSI Software Target snap-in provides the following wizards: • Create iSCSI Target wizard • Create Virtual Disk wizard • Import Virtual Disk wizard • Extend Virtual Disk wizard • Schedule Snapshot wizard • Export Snapshot wizard NOTE: Wizards are not applicable to the Dell EqualLogic gateway solution. Volume Shadow Copy Service Provider You can install the volume shadow copy service (VSS) provider to support advanced management of iSCSI virtual disks and snapshots. Microsoft iSCSI Software Target VSS Provider - iSCSI snapshots are created using the VSS and a storage array with a provider that is designed for use with VSS. A Microsoft iSCSI Software Target VSS provider is required to create application-transportable snapshots of iSCSI virtual disks and create application-consistent snapshots from iSCSI initiators. This provider can be installed on the iSCSI initiator server and on the server that is used to perform backups. The backup software should support transportable snapshots. The iSCSI software target VSS provider installation package is located on the Microsoft Windows Unified Data Storage Server 2003 Reinstallation DVD at the following location: CMPNENTS\FEATURE_PACKS\iSCSITargetVSS.exe. Indexing The Indexing service extracts information from a set of documents and organizes the information for quick and easy access by the search function on systems running Windows 2000 or Windows XP. This information can include the contents and characteristics of the document such as the author's name. When the index is created, you can query the index for documents that contain keywords, phrases, or properties. Deployment Guide 15
