I guess you mean the 'iSCSI multipath' sub-tab under the 'Datacenters' tab. There you can assign one or more networks to a iSCSI backend. In my opinion you cannot have more than one interface within the same network segment to do multipath, as you would have connectivity issues (not sure if ovirt r

Hello Chris, Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Dan meant target's IPs. So if you have a SAN backend with two IP addresses, you first discover LUNs from first IP address, then discover LUNs from the second IP address, and so on... once you have them all, you just check them and click on "OK" so t

Multipath is more a SAN thing, - not a tcp/ip. You should use something like LACP group on two (or more) of your network interfaces. Also you will have to configure your switch accordingly. You will not have to worry about second ip. LACP bonded interface will use one IP, but will fail-over to o
