How can I achieve this?
You can do it at discovery time iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -I iface0 -I iface1 -I iface2... or iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -I iface0 iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -I iface1 -o new iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip -I iface2 -o new or you can set it up manually // make sure for these commands you pass in the address:port,tpgt in that format (like what you see when you iscsiadm -m node -P 1). If you just pass in the address it will think you are doing old style commands and only let you have one iface per portal. iscsiadm -m node -T target -p address:port,tpgt -I iface0 -o new iscsiadm -m node -T target -p address:port,tpgt -I iface1 -o new iscsiadm -m node -T target -p address:port,tpgt -I iface2 -o new -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
