globalSAN Iscsi for MAC OS X and adaptec snap server

[ranj]

Dear all

 

I have a Apple Mac server in our school running OSX server 10.4.11 and I am looking to backup the data from our Apple XRAID box over to the snap server which is a NAS box (Adaptec Snap Server 520).

 

The snap server supports ISCSI and I have installed the globalSAN iscsi initiator on our mac server. I have setup a ISNS IP address and port and then also inputted these details into the portal and target area of the initiator console but when we try to login i receive an error

 

"could not login to target ..... because an error occured while making tcp connection".

 

I was looking around on various forums and I just want to ensure that the SNAP server as a target device is compatible with globalSAN? or has anyone experienced this problem with globalsan who might be able to point me in the right direction.

 

I am not sure if I am setting up the globalsan inititator correctly. If someone knows how to set this up i would be very grateful on any advice you could give me.

 

Your help is much appreciated.
