Hello,
What version of FW is on the EQL array? Any error messages on the
EQL array events?
I work for Dell/Equallogic and I have no issues connecting up ubuntu
12.10 to EQL. The only recent issue I've seen with 12.x is 12.04
the startup scripts don't login to iSCSI after a reboot or on start up.
# iscsiadm -m session -P 1

I'm curious why you don't want MPIO?
You'll need to modify /etc/sysctl.conf for MPIO
# ARP connection mods
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore=1
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce=2
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter=2
For ACLs I typically use the initiator name from the ubuntu server.
I.e. iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:8ab9cf5340f0
Have you opened a case with Dell? While not a 'supported' OS, we
will do best effort to assist you.
Can you dump the following?
$sudo iscsiadm -m node
$sudo iscsiadm -m session
$sudo iscsiadm -m iface
$sudo iscsiadm -m discovery
Do you have a NIC that is on the same subnet as the array or are you
routing to the SAN?
NICs on the same subnet is the preferred way.

Don
Hey Don, I did finally get it connected. The reason I don't need mpio is
because I'm just connecting to this volume to run backups with
Duplicity. Performance and redundancy isn't really a big deal and I only
have one link connected to that linux box at this time anyway. How do I
get around the startup script issues connecting on boot?
Thanks!
