Multipathing configuration

Our SAN manager just presented me a new LUN to migrate my virtual machines to.

But, Instead of seeing a new additional path on SCSI Target 0 as expected, I see an additional 4 SCSI targets (1-4).

Apparency, this is a multi-pathed SAN and this is my first experience with this technology. Though I see a different path for each SCSI target, the canonical path is the same, so I assume their is some sort of support for multi-pathing, but I'm not 100% clear on the procedure to show only one through the Virtual Infrastructure client, or if it is something I need to perform while SSH'd into the servers

using:

Virtual Infrastructure Client 2.0.2 &

VMware ESX Server 3.0.2

New LUN -> new SCSI target.

Each SCSI target has his own multipath.
