Does SANDeploy support STPI function and can I use Symantec Backup Exec?

While creating virtual volumes, there an option called STPI device, you can use this option to create a tape bridged device so that client machines can use your tapejust like a locally attached tape device.  However you need to limit the packet size to 65536 at the initiator side, please follow these steps:

1. Open registry editor, open the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E97B-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\Parameters
please note the 0000 key may be 0001, 0002 etc.

2. Find a key - You need to look for DriverDesc key with value "Microsoft iSCSI Initiator".

3. Modify the following key values:

FirstBurstLength: 65536 (Decimal)

MaxBurstLength: 65536 (Decimal)

MaxRecvDataSegmentLength: 65536 (Decimal)

MaxTransferLength: 65536 (Decimal)

4. Close the registry editor and restart the computer.
