How to add a second iSCSI software HBA on ESXi 5.1

Hi All:

 

I've been googling around for a solution I have no clue yet. First of all, my previous virtualization technologies

background was using Linux kernel-based hypervisors like KVM and Xen. Now I'm getting used to do things on

VMWare ESXi way

 

Well, I've managed to setup an multipath I/O connection to a iSCSI storage. Do do so I've created a

'vmhba37' iSCSI Software Adapter bounded to two vmknic's (vmk1 and vmk2), each one bounded to

a nic in a teaming fashion.

 

Now I'd like to add another iSCSI storage, a complete different iSCSI storage server. But looks like I can't

create another vmhba iSCSI Software Adapter!! I've tried many sort of things, inclusive trying using CLI commands

like 'esxcli iscsi' and so forth.

 

Is there possible to add another iSCSI software adapter or another storage target on ESXi 5.1? If so, how ?

 

Thanks a lot

Lucas
