can not add Storage Domain using offload iscsi

Hi, some facts: ovirt-node 4.3.10 (based on Centos 7) hosts are HP blades BL460C with network card supporting iscsi HBA (there are no iscsi nics visible on OS level, but i had to configure ip addresses manually since they were not inherited from BIOS ) # iscsiadm -m iface default tcp,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>,<empty> iser iser,<empty>,<empty>,<empty>,<empty> be2iscsi.c4:34:6b:b3:85:75.ipv4.0 be2iscsi,c4:34:6b:b3:85:75,172.40.2.21,<empty>,iqn.1990-07.com.emulex:ovirt1worker1 be2iscsi.c4:34:6b:b3:85:75.ipv6.0 be2iscsi,c4:34:6b:b3:85:75,<empty>,<empty>,iqn.1990-07.com.emulex:ovirt1worker1 be2iscsi.c4:34:6b:b3:85:71.ipv6.0 be2iscsi,c4:34:6b:b3:85:71,<empty>,<empty>,iqn.1990-07.com.emulex:ovirt1worker1 be2iscsi.c4:34:6b:b3:85:71.ipv4.0 be2iscsi,c4:34:6b:b3:85:71,172.40.1.21,<empty>,iqn.1990-07.com.emulex:ovirt1worker1 # iscsiadm -m session be2iscsi: [1] 172.40.2.1:3260,12 iqn.1992-04.com.emc:cx.ckm00143501947.a0 (non-flash) be2iscsi: [2] 172.40.2.2:3260,6 iqn.1992-04.com.emc:cx.ckm00143501947.b1 (non-flash) be2iscsi: [5] 172.40.1.1:3260,5 iqn.1992-04.com.emc:cx.ckm00143501947.a1 (non-flash) be2iscsi: [6] 172.40.1.2:3260,4 iqn.1992-04.com.emc:cx.ckm00143501947.b0 (non-flash) [root@worker1 ~]# multipath -l 3600601604a003a00ee4b8ec05aa5ec11 dm-47 DGC ,VRAID size=100G features='2 queue_if_no_path retain_attached_hw_handler' hwhandler='1 alua' wp=rw |-+- policy='service-time 0' prio=0 status=active | |- 3:0:2:1 sds 65:32 active undef running | `- 4:0:0:1 sdo 8:224 active undef running `-+- policy='service-time 0' prio=0 status=enabled |- 3:0:3:1 sdu 65:64 active undef running `- 4:0:1:1 sdq 65:0 active undef running ... target SAN storage is detected, and exposed LUNs are visible.

I read offload iscsi is supported but all the documentation i found is for software iscsi. any hints welcomed thanks

oVirt 4.3 is EOL, please upgrade to oVirt 4.4 as soon as practical. Il giorno gio 17 mar 2022 alle ore 11:13 <lkopyt@gmail.com> ha scritto:
