IMPORTANT: After a profile has been created with iSCSI offload and assigned to a server, this iSCSI offload configuration remains until it is manually removed through the system BIOS or OS utility, even if the iSCSI offload is removed from the profile. Additionally, if iSCSI targets are added using the system BIOS or the OS utility, those targets remain until they are manually removed.
