rsync of iSCSI
I've been trying to find this and have not been successful. Can someone describe the steps to backup from one readynas 2100 to another readynas 2100 using rsync where I want to backup a iSCSI targe...
To be clear, you can NOT backup an iscsi image to another readynas and be able to directly usae that image.
There is no support for syncing or replicating usable iscsi images from one readynas to another.
You can backup the iscsi image file, to another share. It is just a large file, just like a 'virtual hard drive' used in virtual pc etc.
To actually use that isci image, you must do as ewok states above:
Obviously this is not intended or efficient for realtime replication or failover.

To make the disk image into a target, create the target on the remote ReadyNAS, use the backup manager to back the disk image up to a share, then connect to the data volume share (normally C) as the admin user and move the disk image to the root of the data volume. You would need to restart the iSCSI server for the change to take effect.
