Hello list, My setup is described here in details : https://groups.google.com/d/msg/open-iscsi/ivprFF9hklY/mkVPHo5q1p0J but now I have another issue.
I'm trying to connect 2 NICs to a SAN that presents 2 ip, and all that is on the same subnet and on the same switch. I read some old comments on old threads (< 2006) that discouraged that, and one answer of Mike also said the same : > I think you might hit some issues or at least not get what you expect > with both network interfaces on the same subnet, but using the default > iscsi default iface. > > (though I don't understand the very last part after the comma) But I hoped the situation had improved since, and that some limitations had gone. Indeed, when re-re-re-reading the doc page of open-iscsi <http://www.open-iscsi.org/docs/README>, I see nowhere advicing against having two NICs on the same subnet. So I tried and got that : - both NICs (em3 and em4) can ping the 2 SAN's ip - With iscsiadm, I'm adding iface0 and iface1, and I specify the MAC hardware address of the corresponding em3 and em4 - When discovering, all seems to work well - When login in, it is failing in a way it seems I'm not allowed to connect using both ifaces at the same time. When trying to log in, I specify the iface0, and the login to the 2 SAN ip is working well. But then, doing the same with iface1 is failing, with a kernel errror message : iscsid: conn 0 login rejected: target error (03/02) And after having logout, trying the same way around with iface1 first results in the same behaviour. Is it by design that iscsi does not permit the login from 2 ifaces concurrently? I tried to find somewhere in my EMC SAN (Cx3-10) where there would be some sort of such limitations, but found nothing. -- Nicolas Ecarnot -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
