vmware esxi and iscsi connection using external switch

Hi all,

 

I am facing problem in setting up iscsi storage with VMware esxi 5.5.

 

there is iscsi port on storage. if I am connecting directly to esxi server. there is link coming but if I connect to separate HUB , there is no link.

 

I am using dell equallogin PS6110E iscsi storage.

 

as I said above if I am connecting Ethernet cable directly to esxi NIC port which is then binded to iscsi adapter. I am able to configure storage fine.

 

but I need to connect three esxi servers. as there are no more ports available on storage I cannot connect two more esx servers. so I am using HUB.

 

but once I connect storage eth0 which is iscsi only NIC. there is no link coming on NIC. from esix nic it is ok the link is coming if I connect to HUB.

 

is there any restriction at ISCSI level?

 

thanks in advance

 

noor
