Windows Server Codename "Longhorn" Beta 3 is out

But if you want to test failover clustering....

Standard SCSI based clustering will no longer work (yes I tested it, no go). 

Rocket Division StarWind will be the product you want to use to test Failover Clustering. http://www.rocketdivision.com/wind.html You will have to wait until the June 2007 time frame while they make it work with Beta 3.

FalconStor iSCSI Storage Server http://www.falconstor.com/en/solutions/?pg=Products&sb=iSCSI I am not sure when they will support it.

Microsoft bought StringBean (http://www.stringbeansoftware.com/downloads_update2_0.asp) which has a great WinTarget program. The program is now part of Windows Unified Data Storage Server and it called Microsoft iSCSI Software Target. That one works today, if you are lucky enough to have a copy.

OK, Rocket Division Software DOES HAVE LH clustering compatible StarWind iSCSI Target. Drop us a message to the info@rocketdivision.com so we'd provide you with a link (still private) to the version 3.5 (or up). Thanks!

I have used Rocket Division's Windows Server 2008 version and it works wonderful. I love it.

Thanks Anton
