Hi Dan,
I'm a colleague of Gary's, we've been working on this project together.
We've not had it working with the Dell HIT thus far. The python scripts in
VDSM that handle the iSCSI connections use iscsiadm to discover and login
to sessions so more extensive modifications would be needed to use ehcmcli
instead, and oVirt uses the normal device mapper devices under /dev/mapper,
whereas the HIT puts devices under /dev/eql and handles multipathing in
it's own way it seems. We've not tried extending it to work with the HIT
tools and devices partly because we wanted to keep the iSCSI side of things
here as close to standard as possible, and not have to treat the EqualLogic
stuff as too much of a special case.
Thanks,
Martin

Just out of interest, have you tried this with the Dell hitkit?
