To ensure that the iSCSI initiator service starts in the future, type
SC Config MSiSCSI Start= Auto and press Enter (remember the space between the = and the
word Auto). In addition, you must allow the iSCSI initiator through the firewall. Unfortunately,
you can??™t use the NetSH utility to perform this task because Windows Server 2008 uses a new technique
to set some features. You must use the Registry Editor (RegEdit.EXE) to perform this task.
The following steps tell you how to perform the configuration change.
1. Type RegEdit and press Enter. You??™ll see the Registry Editor window.
2. Locate the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\
Parameters\FirewallPolicy\FirewallRules key.
3. Find the MsiScsi-In-TCP value and double-click its entry. You??™ll see an Edit String dialog
box. The Value Data field contains
v2.0|Action=Allow|Active=FALSE|Dir=In|Protocol=6|Profile=Domain|Profile=
Private|Profile=Public|App=%SystemRoot%\system32\svchost.exe|Svc=Msiscsi|
Name=@FirewallAPI.dll,-29003|Desc=@FirewallAPI.dll,-29006|EmbedCtxt=
@FirewallAPI.dll,-29002|Edge=FALSE|.
4. Change the Active value to TRUE, so that it reads Active=TRUE.
