Hmm.. will this cause problems with Equallogic storage? Equallogic prefers having all the initiators (and targets) in the same IP subnet. ie. you might have multipath configuration like this on the initiator system: eth0: 10.0.0.1/24 eth1: 10.0.0.2/24 And open-iscsi connects to the same target IP (Equallogic group redirection IP) from both interfaces. Target IP might be 10.0.0.10. This works well with the non-offloaded open-iscsi over tcp. You can specify the ethernet interface for each open-iscsi ifaceX by using the ifacename. -- Pasi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
