Hi,

I am running into an issue when trying to configure multipath connections to a 
iSCSI target in CentOS 5.5.
When I configure my interface files in /var/lib/iscsi/ifaces/ and try to do a 
discovery I am not getting multiple connections. Trying to do discovery using a 
specific interface results in iscsiadm giving the error:  "Could not match 
iface[hw=00:0C:29:44:44:17,ip=,net_if=,iscsi_if=iface.eth2] to host."


Anyone seen this before and know the solution?

Thanks!


Some info on my configuration:

[r...@localhost ifaces]# iscsiadm -m discovery --type sendtargets --portal 
10.100.100.5:3260 -d2 -I iface.eth1
iscsiadm: Max file limits 1024 1024

iscsiadm: Could not match 
iface[hw=00:0C:29:44:44:21,ip=,net_if=,iscsi_if=iface.eth1] to host.
iscsiadm: iface iface.eth1 is not valid. Will not bind node to it. Iface 
settings [hw=00:0C:29:44:44:21,ip=,net_if=,iscsi_if=iface.eth1]
