Enabling Multi-Path on the Initiator

After you establish the iSCSI Initiator-Target connection, perform the

following steps to enable multi-path operation:

1 On the Initiator, go to iSCSI Initiator PropertiesTargets tab→ Log

On...Log On to Target window and select the check box for Enable

multi-path option.

2 You must configure multiple NIC ports for iSCSI operation for efficient

block (iSCSI) I/O operations and for provisioning link failover. Multi-path

option also enables multiple connections for the same iSCSI Targets using

different IP addresses.
