Thanks James ;
The problem is nearly identical with mine. When we had 2 LUN's vmware tried to multipath over them . I think this is a bug inside VMWare as it thinks that two LUN 0 are same. I think I can fool it setting up targets with different LUN numbers. After I figured out this, I switched to a single LUN , cleaned a few things and reinitialized . For some reason VM found 200+ LUN's again but all with single active path. I started formatting the first one. (100 GB) It's been going one for the last 20 minutes. I hope it will ever finish. Zpool iostat shows small activity over disk. I think that vmware 3,02 have a severe bug. I will try to open a case at vmware . But there seems to be a lot of people on the web who had no problems with the exact same setup.

Jim We are running latest Solaris 10 a X4500 Thumper. We defined a test iSCSI Lun. Out put below Target: AkhanTemp/VM iSCSI Name: iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:72406bf8-2f5f-635a-f64c-cb664935f3d1 Alias: AkhanTemp/VM Connections: 0 ACL list: TPGT list: LUN information: LUN: 0 GUID: 010000144fa7093000002a0047fa50e6 VID: SUN PID: SOLARIS Type: disk Size: 100G Backing store: /dev/zvol/rdsk/AkhanTemp/VM Status: online We tried to access the LUN from a windows laptop, and it worked without any problems. However VMWare ESX 3,2 Server is unable to access the LUN's. We checked that the virtual interface can ping X4500. Sometimes it sees the Lun , but 200+ Lun's with the same proporties are listed and we cant add them as storage. Then after a rescan they vanish.
