Should I see iSCSI hba as target in kernel port creation?

I have an Emulex oce11102-it installed using the off line bundle install.

The adapter shows up as both a nic and an iSCSI hba.

However when I  try to create a kernel port to be used for iSCSI the hba does not show up in the list.

Am I missing something? How should I implement iSCSI with an iSCSI hba?

thanks

Ken

You can verify that the adapter has been installed correctly in number of different ways:

CLI:

#  esxcli iscsi adapter list

For the vSphere Client:

For the Web Client:

Check this one out form 5.1 documentation center:

Emulex CNA adapter

may I know whether is this the one you install? this is correct driver. if you install below network function driver, it would only support network function.  network function adapter
