xStack Storage DSN-Series SAN Arrays VMware ESX 3.0.2 & 3.5 Figure 11: iSCSI Initiator Properties Window D-Link offers iSCSI HBAs for use with iSCSI implementations. For larger deployments, scalability benefits may be realized in storage performance by implementing iSCSI HBAs. Note that this statement is not a requirement or a recommendation, but rather a consideration when designing dense storage solutions. The benefits of iSCSI HBAs are best realized because the storage arrays will have a higher aggregated I/O load than that of any individual VI3 Server. iSCSI offers several options for addressing storage. If you are not ready to use iSCSI for your primary data access, you may consider iSCSI for several other uses. iSCSI could be used to connect to data stores that store CD-ROM ISO images. Also, iSCSI can be used as a redundant or failover path for a primary Fibre Channel path. D-Link Systems, Inc. December 2, 2009 Page 16
