Hi WVX --  When dependent iSCSI adapter devices are present on an ESX 4.1 host, we create a host entry on the VNXe with IQNs for each one present plus the software iSCSI adapter. It results in some redundant but benign calls at the initial configuration. As Graeme mentioned, it should have long stopped by now.  Best, Matt
After creating some VMFS datastores in the VNXe its constantly getting the ESX servers to add ip storage targets and rescan their HBA. The datastores were created successfully hours ago. Why is this? We are using ESXi 4.1 with software iSCSI initiator. I have attached an image to illustrate my point [IMAGE]
