ISCSI Initiator Error
I have a Virtual SQL server with two nics .25 and .26 the only traffic I see is on the .26 nic. and I am receiving the error below. I am not having any access problems to the volume I would just like to get both nics receiving traffic. I checked the ACL and it looks the same as all my other volumes.
Any Idea's?

The setting on the volume "Allow simultaneous connections from initiators with different iqn's" is designed for clusters and/or multiple VM's to access the same volume.
If you are trying to have just one host connect to the same volume but using all the iscsi interfaces on that host, you need to setup multipathing for the Host OS.
The documentation for setting up multipathing for the various OS's is at the configuration portal or the support site:

Why should mutilhost access only be used when in a cluster ?
