Most Recently Used—ESX server uses the most recent path to the disk until this path becomes un-
available. Even if the path becomes available, the host does not automatically revert back to the
preferred path.

Round Robin (Experimental)—The ESX Server load balances across all available paths. VMware
defines the Round Robin policy as Experimental; Round Robin, therefore, is not a supported mul-
tipathing policy.

NOTE:

HP recommends using Fixed (default) for EVA iSCSI connectivity.
