Thanks Jim and Mike I increased time out from 1 second to 15 second and finally array accepted the login request and initiator login. When I tried to login from eth5 interface then it times out , anyway I have increased timeout from 15 second to 45 second and now all good. Thanks a lot. Yes I had already logged case with Equallogic and they are still looking into it.
Last suggestion is should we use multipathing over bonded interface or multipathing over simple ethernet interfaces? multipathiong over 2 bonded interface we are getting same throughput as we are getting multipathing over 4 individual interfaces and array has 3 ports so my understanding was 3 network interfaces will have more throughput as compared to two bonded interface. But bonded interface are good in regards of swicth failover or nic module failure , same scnerio which I was tryin to test. Even the primary eth2 is down bonded interfcae will have no impact. What do you guys think about multipath over bonded interface or multipathing over interfaces. Thanks a lot for for your help guys.
