You have too unbind the 2 VMKs from the swISCSI Module first and than you can start removing the VMKs from the vSwitch. I preferer also a reboot of the host after you finished the work. Regards, Joerg
Hi, Quick question, more of a sanity check: I have an EqualLogicPS6500E with all 4 ports of both controllers wired to a switch, and each ESXi host has 4 dedicated iSCSI network links to this switch. Stats shows that we probably do not need all 4 connected at the host end (4 hosts) and that 2 links would probably be fine. I also need the spare switch ports for an extra EqualLogic SAN to pool with the first one - and we're out of ports. At the same time, I cannot really stretch to more switches not do I fancy the disruption of trying to add a new Dell Powerconnect to the ring of 2 (backplane linked). The 4 NICs terminate in an iSCSI software adaptor in ESXi. What's the easiest way to remove the 2 unwanted links? I assume: 1) Remove 2 of the 4 VMKernel ports from the iSCSI vSwitch 2) Remove 2 of the 4 NICS from the iSCSI vSwitch That's it? I have a feeling I forgot something... I did not set these up manually - rather I used the setup.pl script that came with the EqualLogic MPIO for VMWare driver bundle.  Many thanks :)  Tim
