Question : Problem: WTF's up with my iSCSI network config ???
|
|
Experts:
I just purchased an EMC AX4-5i dual-SP SAN appliance; two racks, one for SAS drives and the other with SATA drives. I'm just setting up the appliance and I'm stuck, hoping you all can help me figure something out.
If you look at the attached file you'll notice my vanilla setup: 1 server with 3 NICs connected to a pair of GigE switches configured in a meshed network connecting a pair of SP units, each with two iSCSI ports of their own.
The problem I'm having is that on the server i can only ping one of two switches and only two of four iSCSI ports

So before I go any further and start configuring iSCSI initiators or LUNs, etc...I wanted to clear up this networking mystery
Thanks,

There's no need for a remote session; the adminpak.msi installs the "Active Directory User and Computer" mmc snap-in, the same that you start from the domain controller. You should find it in the start menu in the "Administration" folder.
