Hello,   Snapshots do not affect iSCSI connections at all.  So that is not your issue.   ESXi maintains iSCSI connections in a small database.  That is likely where the duplicate entries are coming from.   You will likely seem them in the "Static Mappings" tab in the iSCSI initiator.   They aren't likely causing harm but I would suggest opening a case with either you VMware support or Dell Support to take a closer look and clear them out safely.   I would also suggest you make sure that all the best practices for EQL with ESXi are followed.  This tech report will show you how to do that.  [URL]  Regards,  Don  
I have a PS6210 group connected to 3 esxi hosts over a private LAN, all set up to use multipath. In EQ group manager, the 2 older hosts show duplicate iscsi connections for each nic (the ones with IPs ending with 21, 28, 29 and 30. The newer host (with the .31 and .32 IPs) doesn't have the duplicate connections. .[IMAGE] I've scoured my host network configurations to see if I can find a difference, but no luck yet. Any ideas on what I can check? Hmmmm - just now noticed that VM LUNs with EQ snapshots don't have the duplicates, while LUNs with no snapshots do have them. I'm in the middle of setting up snapshot space for all my VMs, so maybe the duplicates will disappear after the snapshots are created?
