Hi!

Maybe that's related: With SLES10 SP1 (x86_64) I have two iSCSI LUNs that are 
reachable over 16 paths each, and the networ connections use two dedicated 
separate VLANs. As it's a test at the moment, there's only one initiator and 
two 
iSCSCI gateways connected to that switch. And there is no traffic (the 
filesystem 
is a RAID1 that is not mounted). Still I'm seeing message like this:

I have an odd feeling about that.
