Additional Information

•NIC teaming is not supported for iSCSI traffic on the host or on the PowerVault MD3000i storage array.
•After the host is configured to use BFi, you can configure additional paths to other targets in the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator.
•Do not log in to ports that were configured in the iSCSI boot BIOS, these logins are automatically performed through the NIC iSCSI boot firmware table.
