HP StorageWorks EVA iSCSI Connectivity Option 9.0 Release Notes (5697-0510, June 2010)
Workaround
The CHAP setup will be resolved in a future release of the Linux initiator.
Windows drops the IP connection
Certain I/O workloads can result in the removal of a LUN because Windows has dropped the IP
connection.
Workaround
The connection can be restored by rebooting the system. To avoid dropped connections, do one of
the following:
• Reduce the I/O workload.
• Use a smaller application transfer size.
HP StorageWorks High-Availability Fabric Manager (HAFM) for M-series Fibre
Channel switches does not recognize the mpx100
The M-series Zoning Manager does not recognize the world wide port names (WWPNs) of the
mpx100 as Fibre Channel HBAs. Instead, the M-series Zoning Manager sees the WWPNs as switches,
so they do not appear as devices to zone.
Workaround
Use one of the following M-series applications to configure zones that include the mpx100 WWPNs:
• Prior to HAFM 8, use Embedded Web Server (EWS).
• For HAFM 8 and later, use HAFM Basic.
NOTE:
After configuring the zones, you must update HAFM to include these changes.

The iSCSI name structure is fairly rigid and contains two parts: a type designation followed by a
unique name.
Table 1 lists the type designators for iSCSI.
