Thanks for the prompt reply, I hadn't thought of that but I was trying to avoid backing it up over NAS as I would like to take advantage of the performance of iSCSI over NAS to keep the backup times down. There are a lot of small files 10,000-100,000 being changed and added to the data daily.
Are you able to confirm my initial thoughts?
'I'm guessing the only reason you couldn't is because the replicated volumes would retain some sort of identifier info that will make the volumes party to the same issue as if both servers were connecting to the same iSCSI server'
Therefore I can't connect the backup server via iSCSI. If so then what you have suggested seems to make most sense.
