MSA 2324i MPIO settings

[nathy]

Hi

What is best practise with MPIO.
I have a iSCSI MSA 2324i.
Should I take "fail over" or "round robin"?

Best regards

Are your host(s) using storage via SAN or iSCSI,

But in general I can say that failover has no load balancing but round robin has.

hi,
it should be roubrobin with subsets. the Vdisk owner should handle IO, whil the other 2 paths no IO. This is true for windows & linux.
in case of ESX, use fixed towards the vdisk owner.
