[ceph-users] Ceph iSCSI Questions

All; We've used iSCSI to support virtualization for a while, and have used multi-pathing almost the entire time. Now, I'm looking to move from our single box iSCSI hosts to iSCSI on Ceph. We have 2 independent, non-routed, subnets assigned to iSCSI (let's call them 192.168.250.0/24 and 192.168.251.0/24). These subnets are hosted in VLANs 250 and 251, respectively, on our switches. Currently; each target and each initiator have a dedicated network port for each subnet (i.e. 2 NIC per target & 2 NIC per initiator). I have 2 server prepared to setup as Ceph iSCSI targets (let's call them ceph-iscsi1 & cpeh-iscsi2), and I'm wondering about their network configurations. My initial plan is to configure one on the 250 network, and the other on the 251 network. Would it be possible to have both servers on both networks? In other words, can I give ceph-iscsi1 both 192.168.250.200 and 192.168.251.200, and ceph-iscsi2 192.168.250.201 and 192.168.251.201? If that works, I would expect the initiators to see 4 paths to each portal, correct? Thank you, Dominic L. Hilsbos, MBA Director - Information Technology Perform Air International Inc.
