Access Error: Could not open the hard disk '192.168.102.132/iqn.2000-03.com.xxx'.
VD: error opening image file 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/iqn.2000-03.com.xxx' (VERR_IO_GEN_FAILURE)

that the disk was created with the Type normal and not with write-through. Maybe this is the problem, but i cannot find how to make something different or to use a flag like "-type ..."
Is this still a problem with a recent VirtualBox release? Which iSCSI target do you use?
