Hi Mike,
thought you might be interested in this. I am using the Sun amber road
vmware demo and set it to export an iscsi target.
The fun part starts at discovery. I have defined two interfaces on it,
one for administration, the other for the actual target. When I send a
target discovery request to the data interface the target responds
with its name (iqn.blabla) and the two interface IP numbers, which
open-iscsi happily puts in its database (that is, the same name and
two different IP numbers, so two entries), like this.
[r...@orange ~]# iscsiadm -m node
192.168.1.125:3260,1 iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:8e72afff-eb91-e5e0-de5a-

Using the delete option removes them both, as the name is the same.
Needles to say that if you login, you login to both, creating in my
case a /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc device, effectively being the same
target. I can see multipathing here, but not as we know it ;-)
What do you mean? Multipath doesn't work with that iSCSI target?
Any ideas? E.g. marking the node as a multipathing device, as the iqn
name is the same?
Marking? From an iSCSI standpoint having two (or even more) of the same IQN
is OK.
And yes, happy holidays!!
You too!
