One iSCSI Network with Dual 10 GbE 2-Port Storage Controllers

Use one iSCSI network to prevent an unavailable port or storage controller from causing a loss of

connectivity between the host servers and a

storage system with dual 10 GbE 2-Port storage controllers.

About this task

This configuration includes two fault domains, one iSCSI network, and one Ethernet switch. Each storage

controller connects to the Ethernet switch using two iSCSI connections.
