Move iSCSI Target Service
Hi, have a client with a 6-node vSAN cluster providing iSCSI targets to some physical boxes. Generally works ok, but they want to be able to pro-actively move the services for specific iSCSI targets between nodes in the cluster for load-balancing and maintenance planning. Is there any way to do this at the moment? (It's all vSphere 7.03).

Hi @nitro_jawt,
I'm not sure if I fully understand your query. The active path for iSCSI to the I/O Owner of the iSCSI LUN will move across hosts automatically if needed - e.g. when entering maintenance mode for the host or during a failure. The owner is automatically decided by vSAN and cannot be manually influenced.
From a data perspective the iSCSI LUN is a vSAN object, which is split across the entire vSAN cluster as any other objects. You can't move the data of the object to a specific host, as there's also no need to.
