i removed my bond for iscsi (eth3 / eth5)
on eth3 : 10.0.0.1 Jumbo Frame 9000
on eth5 : 10.0.0.3 Jumbo Frame 9000
on esxi host i add 10.0.0.3 for iscsi
now i have my 4 paths to access my iscsi volume
Round Robin Vmware is active
No perfomance improvement with CrystalDiskMark
I'm using OpenE V5 (not V6) may it's a limitation with IET / SCST option for ISCSI ?
I'm planning to move to V6...

i had to tweak mpio settings to get any increase in performance at all - 4 IOs per path instead of default 1000

i dont find this kind of option in Vmware.
Following a blog message, i just have to activate Round Robin option.
I'll wait for V6 then...
