PowerStore iSCSI ESXi
Hello All,
I was wondering if in PowerStore iSCSI deployments it is still the best practice to separate iSCSI traffic into two non-routable VLANS / subnets? For example - Node A IOM 0 eth0 >> VLAN_A, Node A IOM 0 eth1 >> VLAN_B, Node B IOM 0 eth0 >> VLAN_A, Node B IOM 0 eth1 >> VLAN_B. Or all the PowerStore iSCSI ports should be in the same VLAN / subnet, so each initiator will login to each target port?
Thank you.

Hello all_rights_reserved,
Which Powerstore model do you have a powerstore T or X? Here is a link to Networking Guide for PowerStore T Models, as well as Networking Guide for PowerStore X Models, which has the worksheets for how best to configure your iSCSI network.

Hello,
i think the better guide is the https://elabnavigator.dell.com/vault/pdf/VMwareESX.pdf?key=1588943108041 one because OP asks for vSphere ESXi iSCSI.
Notes: PowerStore OS 1.x only supports "Single Subnet(VLAN)) for iSCSI and with PowerStore OS => 2.x they support Single and Multi Subnet configurations and they named the MultiSubnet the preferred solution.

Joerg
