Appendix 43

If multiple-paths to the Target are available, then you must describe each

path to the iSCSI Initiator. To describe multiple paths to the Initiator:

In the

Log On to Target

window, select

Enable multi-path

and click

Advanced

The

Advanced

option provides a drop-down menu with all possible source

(Initiator) IP addresses and a separate drop-down menu for all possible

Target portal addresses. In this scenario, the Target solution manages the

actual paths and IP addresses internally. Other Target solutions display

each available IP address that can be used for multi-path operations.

Select each desired combination of source IP address and Target IP address

and login separately to have multiple sessions for the same Target device.

Select

Automatically restore this connection when the system boots

ensure continuous connection and to avoid establishment of

Target-Initiator association during power spike or system reboots.

Repeat the

Log on

process for each iSCSI NIC.

Figure A-4. Log On to Target Window

For MPIO connection, you must select the Target that displays status as

Connected and select Log On. In the Log On to Target window, select

Advanced and configure redundant iSCSI Target IP address.
