Windows 2003 iSCSI Data dynamic Disk Recovery
Is it possible for linux file systems to mount,view and copy data from a dynamic disk volume created on windows 2003 server? The scenario is that there is sensitive data on a netapps volume ( storage area networks) and consists of 14 hard-disks in a box managed by software which has suddenly gone offline on windows 2003 server and LUN can be viewed but volume cannot be mounted although software shows all 14 disks are online and iscsi initiator software is used to mount the volume. Disk management on windows 2003 server shows the volume as a dynamic disk and reverting back to basic disk might corrupt the data.Mounting on other system has also failed.
Also checked there is a version of iscsi for linux systems.So would appreciate any ideas or solutions available from the community.

The problem was solved after mounting the the volume successfully on win 2003 server and managed to recover the data intact by using test disk utility after scanning for lost partitions and copy to destination drive.
