NIC teaming on my iSCSI network with Hyper-V

over the weekend i had and issue where i was creating a 2 node fail over cluster for high availability hyper-v. the cluster creation wizard was barking because each node had 2 adapters configured on the same iscsi subnet

node 1

iscsi-1 - 172.16.25.1

iscsi-2 - 172.16.25.2

node2

iscsi-1 - 172.16.25.3

iscsi-1 - 172.16.25.4

i was getting a lot of packet loss between these adapters. I ended up updating the nic drivers and then teaming the nics together and all packet loss went away.

the SAN is a Equallogic PS4100E, isn't the default configuration to configure it the way I had it WITHOUT teaming my NICs?

Any thoughts?  I am worried that teaming my iSCSI NICs might cause issues with Hyper-V. Does anyone know?
