Hello,

 The issue isn't on the Equallogic side, you have "Interface" AKA "IFACE"
files, configured in open-iscsi.   This does discovery out each defined
physical interface and logins as well.

They are located in the open-iscsi directory in the "iface" subdirectory.

Logging in to [*iface: libvirt-iface-33d9c275*, target:
iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:4-52aed6-a9251e6aa-f437080d41b5434f-13-1-orig,
portal: 192.168.99.55,3260] (multiple)

Logging in to *[iface: libvirt-iface-08bf216d*, target:
iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:4-52aed6-a9251e6aa-f437080d41b5434f-13-1-orig,
portal: 192.168.99.55,3260] (multiple)

 If you have multipathd installed it will create an MPIO device allowing
you to use multiple paths to reach the SAN, providing better performance
and redundancy  Typically /dev/mapper/mpath0  /dev/mapper/mpath1, etc...

 This Tech Report covers how to configure MPIO for RedHat.   The basic
process is the same for SuSE.   Files might be located in different
directories.
