After rediscovering the targets, you will see that the isciadm interface records have been updated by ehcmd. For example: # iscsiadm -m iface default tcp,,,, iser iser,,,, bnx2i.a4:ba:db:38:8b:40 bnx2i,a4:ba:db:38:8b:40,1.2.3.4,, bnx2i.a4:ba:db:38:8b:42 bnx2i,a4:ba:db:38:8b:42,1.2.3.5,, Step 5: Logging In to Additional Targets If you do not explicitly provide an interface, the iSCSI initiator attempts to log in through all interfaces using the TCP transport. Because you are not using the TCP transport in this scenario, it is necessary to explicitly list one of the bnx2i interfaces: # iscsiadm -m node -T target-name -I iface1 It is sufficient to specify a single iface to create a single session and let ehcmd create additional sessions as necessary. 120 Enabling iSCSI Offload on HIT/Linux

After rediscovering the targets, you will see that the isciadm interface records have been updated by ehcmd. For example:
# iscsiadm -m
iface
default tcp,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>
iser iser,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>
bnx2i.a4:ba:db:38:8b:40 bnx2i,a4:ba:db:38:8b:40,1.2.3.4,<empty>,<empty>
bnx2i.a4:ba:db:38:8b:42 bnx2i,a4:ba:db:38:8b:42,1.2.3.5,<empty>,<empty>
Step 5: Logging In to Additional Targets
If you do not explicitly provide an interface, the iSCSI initiator attempts to log in through all interfaces using the TCP transport. Because
you are not using the TCP transport in this scenario, it is necessary to explicitly list one of the bnx2i interfaces:
# iscsiadm -m
node
-T
target-name
–I
iface1
It is sufficient to specify a single iface to create a single session and let ehcmd create additional sessions as necessary.
