Hi Forum,

We are having weird issue, could you please help me to sort this out.

We ares testing all scnerios before putting the box into prod and one
of the scnerio is failing. Here is our problem

We have 4 network interfaces (eth2/eth3/eth5/eth6) for iscsi and eth2/
eth5 patched to one HP switch and eth3/eth6 are patched to second HP
switch. eth2 is the first interface for iSCSI so it becomes the
primary interface for the iSCSI subnet (192.168.42.190). If we disable
the eth2 port on HP switch then we cant reach array via eth2 but we
can reach aray through other intefaces

[root@nfs02 ~]# ping 192.168.42.190

But we cant perform discovery via eth3/eth5/eth6 and it keeps failing

[root@nfs02 ~]# iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.42.190
-I eth3
iscsiadm: cannot make connection to 192.168.42.190:3260 (113)
