Fresh install of ESXi 3.5u4 and iSCSI

I've just installed a fresh copy of ESXi 3.5u4 (HP version) on a HP BL460c blade that was previously running ESX3.5. We have several other identical ESXi blades that connect to an iSCSI SAN using the VMWare software initiator. However, I cannot configure this install of ESXi to connect. Looking in /var/log/messages on the server, I see the following after I try to scan for storage:

I've applied all available updates to no avail. Can someone help me get this blade connected to iSCSI?
