I'm just trying to understand how that all works .... so EVERYTHING that is set in the BIOS gets set with "iscsistart -b" regardless if I can see it or not .... meaning when I do "iscsistart -f" I don't see the vlan settings.
# BEGIN RECORD 2.0-873 iface.initiatorname = iqn.0101-01.kvmi.host01 iface.transport_name = be2iscsi iface.hwaddress = ac:16:2d:b8:c7:d1 iface.bootproto = STATIC node.name = iqn.0101-01.kvmi.host01 node.conn[0].address = 192.168.100.101 node.conn[0].port = 3260 # END RECORD # BEGIN RECORD 2.0-873 iface.initiatorname = iqn.0101-01.kvmi.host01 iface.transport_name = be2iscsi iface.hwaddress = ac:16:2d:b8:c7:d5 iface.bootproto = STATIC node.name = iqn.0101-01.kvmi.host01 node.conn[0].address = 192.168.101.101 node.conn[0].port = 3260 # END RECORD It's working ..... but I didn't know why :) Thanks!! --> Rob On Wednesday, September 17, 2014 6:44:07 AM UTC, Mike Christie wrote: > > Nevermind.
