VMware and iSCSI – explained

Posted by JohnMurrayUK on 28th January, 2009

A colleague alerted me to a great post regarding iSCSI performance with specific reference to VMware ESX hosts.

I know many organisations operating VMware farms with iSCSI storage systems, and I expect many will fall foul of some of these excellent gotchas.  The most important of which is that you should really have multiple iSCSI targets if you want to maximise your performance.  Hence, make sure your iSCSI storage hardware supports presentation of LUN’s as individual targets.
