'cause that is the most sought after configuration by most of the small business, who cannot afford a FC SAN. If it does not support, then when is this expected by. I would be more than happy to participate in a beta and test it out. Regards KIRAN

We currently support iSCSI storage via an initiator loaded in a Virtual Server. 3.1 does not support booting virtual servers from an iSCSI target however. We will be adding this feature shortly and we will keep you posted regarding particpation in a beta. Thanks!

We will be providing iSCSI support (software initiator) to boot & run virtual servers off of iSCSI targets in the next release.
