AIO 600 ISCSI & VMWare

[Miguel Gonzalez Castaño]

The PDF "Using Microsoft iSCSI Software Target to Provide Shared-Disk Resources to Clusters white paper" is not downloadable.

Can anyone fix that?

Working on it. I'll post a reply when I hear something back - thanks for the heads up.

Access to the white paper referenced above is now working. Thanks for your patience.

Hi John

Can you advise if it is possible to increase the iSCSI bandwidth of the AiO600 by installing additional NIC's or TOE cards?

Can you Team the ports on the iSCSI Target?

Regards
Sam

Hi Sam,

You sure can. Please check with the Quickspecs for the AiO products to determine which NICs are appropriate for the particular AiO. NC360T is a "standard" one, but there are others, even 10GbE NICs.

NIC Teaming is also available, and what we recommend w/ ESX. Microsoft recommends multi-pathing. It mainly depends on your networking environment and what your servers support.

Cheers,
