  • 1.  ISCSI Multipath Active path selection criteria

    Posted Oct 03, 2019 12:01 AM

    Hi everyone,

    Please consider the following example:

    ESXI  VMK1-1.1.1.1----------1.1.1.10-TARGET-LUN0

               VM2-1.1.1.2------------|

    Above ESXI has two equal paths to get to LUN0. How does ESXI chooses active path when multiple paths are available to reach particular LUN ?

    Thanks and have a good night!!
