I guess I should have been more clear. Short answer: no, you don't need to create an iSCSI target for the backup. Longer answer: no, don't create it, because backing up an iSCSI target using the backup manager will not result in an available iSCSI target on the backup destination. The backup treats the iSCSI disk image as a standard file, and will copy it to a local or remote share, which is not where the iSCSI target disk images are stored on the ReadyNAS.
