Hi,

I have two PE2950 servers, two switches and one AIX150i to configured Windows 2003 cluster:

Switch 1:

Storage Network A

Server1 PCI1, Server2 PCI1, AIX150i-SPA0 and AIX150i-SPB0 connect to the Storage Network A.

Switch 2:

Storage Network B

Server1 PCI2, Server2 PCI2, AXI150i-SPA1 and AIX150i-SPB1 connect to the Storage Network B.

I have installed Microsoft iSCSI and PowerPath at these two servers, the targets of each server are AIX150i-SPA0, SPA1, SPB0 and SPB1.

I want to add two storage network at the switch (Storage C will be added into Switch1, and Storage D will be added into Switch2). The new configuration will be:

Switch 1:

Storage Network A and C

Server1 PCI1, Server2 PCI1 and AIX150i-SPA0 connect to the Storage Network A;

AIX150i-SPB1 connect to the Storage Network C.

Switch 2:

Server1 PCI2, Server2 PCI2 and AIX150i-SPB0 connect to the Storage Network B;

AIX150i-SPA1 connect to the Storage Network D.

In this way, the servers are'nt in the Storage C and D, so they don't need the AIX150i-SPB1 and SPA1. Do I need to modify the servers' iSCSI Initiator targets configuration, remove SPB1 and SPA1 targets? or the iSCISI Initiator can find the available targets (SPB0 and SPA0) automatically?

Thanks
