Hi,

I have configured a windows server 2012 r2 OS with 2 disks/ The server is a VM. Both disks are SCSI. Hoerver, the data disk does not show in ISCSI setup

Screenshot of the part in question is here:

Any help appreciated

Hi,

How do you create the two SCSI disks? When you creat an iSCSI virtual disk, you need to creat a new disk on the iSCSI target server.

At the vm level the disks are scsi.

I then go to computer management and create a disk as per normal (see screenshot below). The disk is there and online?

Hi,

It seems that we cannot view existing disks in ISCSI setup. If you want to load an existing VHD file, you could use Import-IscsiVirtualDisk command to add an iSCSI Virtual Disk object.

For more detailed information, please see:

Using Powershell, this issue fis fixed. However, the target status is offline.

How can I make this online?

Hi, 

When the iSCSI initiator has connected to the persistent target, then the target status is Connected. You need to connnect the iSCSI target from a server via iSCSI initiators.
