Hi Simone,

i think my post to this list titled "iSCSI multipathing setup troubles" 
just recently is about the exact same problem, except i'm not talking 
about the hosted-engine storage domain. i would like to configure _any_ 
iSCSI storage domain the way you describe it in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1149579#c1. i would like to 
do so using the oVirt "iSCSI Multipathing" GUI after everything else is 
setup. i can't find a way to do this. is this now possible? i think the 
iSCSI Multipathing documentation could be improved by describing an 
example IP setup for this.

thanks a lot
matthias
