vSphere and the SAN are using software iSCSI, which means only one vmhba per host, which I've come to learn means that round robin wouldn't have any effect, since it requires multiple HBAs.
Thank you, Tom

Even with one initiator port you should see two paths to a volume (even on ESX 3.5) if you have properly presented the volume to both host ports of the controller managing the vdisk on which the volume is located.

In vCenter I see two paths per LUN in the storage adapters' Paths view, all are marked active, and one of each path also notes I/O, which makes sense since I don't have multiple HBAs.
Thank you, Tom
