Chapter 3 Notes This chapter describes notes when the ETERNUS DX Disk storage systems are connected to the server via iSCSI interface. 3.1 Connection Notes 3.1.1 For VMware vSphere Dedicated IP addresses must be allocated to the iSCSI LAN. An IP address must be allocated to each VMkernel that corresponds to an iSCSI Initiator, and a LAN card and VMkernel must be connected via a virtual switch. For example, a total of four IP addresses are required by the fol- lowing iSCSI connection setup. Ex

Chapter 3 Notes 3.2 VMware ESX Operating Notes 3.1.2 For VMware Infrastructure 3 Dedicated IP addresses must be allocated to the iSCSI LAN. An IP address must be allocated to each VMkernel that corresponds to an iSCSI Initiator, and a LAN card and VMkernel must be connected via a virtual switch. For example, a total of six IP addresses are required by the follow- ing iSCSI connection setup. Example connection configuration VMware ESX server VMkernel (iSCSI Software Initiator) VMkernel (iSC

Chapter 3 Notes 3.6 LAN Switch Connection Notes 3.6 LAN Switch Connection Notes • Since an iSCSI LAN handles large amounts of data (traffic volumes) like an FC-SAN, the iSCSI LAN must have its own switch and be a dedicated LAN separate from the business LANs. • iSCSI LAN redundancy is achieved by the use of multipaths. • For IP network security, the iSCSI LAN assumed to be a dedicated LAN separated from the management LAN (for administration). • The iSCSI LAN must be configured as a dedic
