Hello's. Running a CX4 iscsi. Evaluating a backup solution that backs up directly from the SAN. The backup solution runs on a Windows box. To provide access to the LUNS (All VMFS Volumes) the solution is to add the Windows box to the same storage group as the ESX servers thus giving the Windows box access to the VMFS LUNS.  My question - On the CX and iscsi for that matter, is there a way to assign read-only access to a LUN? My fear is on the Windows box an initialize is performed on any of the visible LUNS and thus corrupting the LUNS  Thanks, Sky.
Mount iScsi LUN as Read-only
