Thanks for the quick reply!  I do have serial numbers showing in my
ietd.conf file after the updateall so I am hopeful.

As they should be. A each target is designed in OF currently to export
only one lun therefore the lun id is 0 since it's the first lun for that
target.

That's a really painful way of fixing it.

IIRC ESX should work with unique scsi serial numbers assigned to each
lun (even if lun id is 0 for all luns). If you've updated to latest
Openfiler release (via updateall or the GUI), you should create a new
iSCSI target. That will update all existing targets as well with a
unique scsi device serial number for their respective luns. That ought
to fix your problem.
