One of the questions I see a lot is how to configure our PowerConnect switches for iSCSI optimization.  First let’s talk a little about what this actually does within the switch itself. iSCSI optimization provides the following features: Ability to assign a specific QoS profile to the iSCSI flows Display of iSCSI session details (connections, initiator, target, and so on) Identification of (self-discovered) iSCSI sessions Identification of iSCSI session termination Identification of non-active iSCSI sessions Another cool feature of this is it will auto detect EqualLogic arrays automatically reconfigure the […]
