Hi can somebody please point me in the right direction.
I have the following setup
ESX 4.1 running 4 VM's on 192.168.100.XXX, through the VMware VSwitch0 (Nic0) to HP Switch to internal network and Fortinet Firewall on 192.168.100.1 to WAN
I bought a Thecus N12000V and I want to connect via iSCSI. What I need to know is how to configure the nic's on the Thecus. They are currently configured
WAN\Lan 192.168.100.XXX Gateway 192.168.100.1 ( so I can control the Thecus)
Lan 1 192.168.2.XXX
Lan 2 192.168.2.XXX
Lan 1 and Lan 2 Linked 192.168.2.249 Gateway 192.168.2.1
New VMware VSwitch1 (Nic2, Nic3)
Nic 2 192.168.2.5
Nic3 192.168.2.6
The Thecus nics and the VMware nics are connected via cat5 eg Lan1-Nic2, Lan2-Nic3
All of the Raids appear in Static discovery:
192.168.2.249:3260
iqn.2012-11.com.thecus.n12000v:iscsi.ts.raid0
192.168.100.249:3260
iqn.2012-11.com.thecus.n12000v:iscsi.ts.raid0
192.168.2.249:3260
iqn.2012-11.com.thecus.n12000v:iscsi.thecus.raid1
192.168.100.249:3260
iqn.2012-11.com.thecus.n12000v:iscsi.thecus.raid1
192.168.2.249:3260
iqn.2012-11.com.thecus.n12000v:iscsi.test.raid1
192.168.100.249:3260
iqn.2012-11.com.thecus.n12000v:iscsi.test.raid1
But it sees them on the .100.XXx as well?? They do not appear in the details area???
I have followed this config guide step by step:

Where I have another issue when I try to bind Nic3 I get the add Nic failure message.
Please tell me what I am doing wrong, do I need to install a switch/router between the Thecus/ESX???
Many Thanks
Andrew
