Hi,

 

Following a recent post around ImDisk and iScsi, here comes an ImDisk proxy enabling one to mount a remote iScsi target to a logical drive.

Binary and source code is here.

Proxy uses an external library : libiscsi.

iScsi url syntax is : iscsi://[<username>[%<password>]@]<host>[:<port>]/<target-iqn>/<lun>[?<argument>[&<argument>]*] .

 

Syntax is as below 

rem launch devio is a separate process
start devio --dll=proxy.dll;dllopen shm:test_proxy iscsi://192.168.1.144/iqn.2008-08.com.starwindsoftware:erwan-pc2-test2/0
timeout 5
rem launch imdisk using the devio proxy thru sharedmemory
imdisk -a -t proxy -o shm -f test_proxy -m x:
pause
rem remove the logical drive which will effectively trigger devio termination as well
imdisk -D -m x:

Screenshots to illustrate the above

Hi Erwan,

 

The link to the "Binary and source code" ends up with a 404 error. Any chance to correct this? Thanks!
