Not tested more anddidn't go to production as it was not considered crucial. Can we consider it stable in RH EL / CentOS 7.3?</div><div><br></div><div>- I remeber that at 5.5 / 6beta times even when configuring offload iSCSI you still needed to configure an ip on the interfaces in OS, because I seem to rememebr the discovery phase (or login perhaps?) happened on tcp and not capable in offload. Is this still true or can I only configure an ip for the offload macs?</div><div><br></div><div>- is the offload configuration transparent to oVirt in the sense that oVirt only needs that the hosts see the multipath iSCSI devices, or do I need to make any particular config in oVirt too, then?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance,</div><div><br></div><div>Gianluca</div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
