Joe - I am not too sure on the author but we have a few iSCSI guys on this list. Specific questions would help. For starts each EQL volume is associated with an iqn and hence you can build multiple sessions by creating multiple initiator portals at the host side. Each of them would login to the EQL volume portal through iface bindings - Ifaces(upstream code) could be created based on the following - a) IQN b) MAC address c) interface name d) transport type -Shyam Iyer _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@lists.us.dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
