ISCSI storage of and VMware detection

I need to powerdown my NetApp Filer to put in a new NIC. Any VM's that are on there I will power down before turning off the NetApp.

Should the ESX boxes automatically detect the NetApp coming back up again and function fine or should I powedown the ESX boxes too? Anyone has any similar experiences?

If your ESX hosts cannot see the luns when the netapp is powered back on just do a storage rescan on the storage adapter configuration page in virtual center.
