7.6 IBM iSCSI Server Adapter in SLES9

The scenario shows the setup of an IBM x445 equipped with two IBM iSCSI
Server Adapters connected via switches to a DS300. SLES9 SP2 is used in this
setup.

7.6.1 Planning and considerations

In this setup two iSCSI Server Adapters are used. Each adapter connects to its
own array on the DS300. At the time of writing this book, it was not possible to
implement a multipathing over two iSCSI Server Adapter.

7.6.2 SAN and network setup

Figure 7-248 shows the SAN and network setup.
