Either the SAN CX4 or Fabric DS-300B don't provide the readonly options so support told me.

There seem to be some option to get a storagegroup readonly, but only through cli.

[got this from other forum]

Can you add a LUN as read only? - Yes, if you are running Flare R31.5.5xx or greater. It can only be done from the cli and the command is: naviseccli -h ip storagegroup -addhlu -readonly

Since i don't want to experiment on a live situation i did the following.

from command console
Code: Select all
diskpart

automount disable [prevents automount of new volumes]
automount scrub [clears previous mounted volumes]

and in registry HKCU->Software->Microsoft->MMC-->{8EAD3A12-B2C1-11d0-83AA-00A0C92C9D5D} add REG_SZ Restrict_Run with value 1

now the Disk Management isn't available anymore through normal ways prevents users to think twice if they want to do anything with the disks.

I will post the speed i am getting now in a later stadium.

Enter names and ipadresses of backupnetwork in proxyhostfile.
Opened 902 port in firewall eventhough it was disabled.

Running AT 34 MB/s

Bottleneck proxy

95% = 99% = 31 % = 2 %

CPU load is 100% on this quadcore CPU, maybe i should add CPU's in this pysical machine.

this thread can be closed!
