The default is to show all paths (each /dev/sdx is a path to the same device).. You would have to manually delete some paths by doing echo 1 > /sys/block/sdX/device/remove > When I run fio on each mounted disk, I see that only two underlying tcp > sessions are being used - that limits the perf. > Any ideas on how to overcome this? How are you matching sessions with devices? It should just be a matter of running fio on the right devices. If you run: iscsiadm -m session -P 3 you can see how the sdXs match up with sessions/connections. If you run fio to a /dev/sdX from each session, you should be seeing IO to all 3 sessions. > > Thanks! > > > Sent from my iPhone > > On Aug 26, 2014, at 12:53 PM, "Mark Lehrer" <m...@knm.org> wrote: > >> On Tue, 26 Aug 2014 08:58:46 -0400 Alvin Starr <al...@iplink.net> wrote: >>> >>>>> I am trying to achieve10Gbps in my single initiator/single target >>>>> env.
