    If the clients and VIP are on the same network they should be able to work fine - did you test?
    All the best,

    No, because I get a Error, if I config the sec. VIP:

    The entered virtual IP is in the same subnetwork as one of the network interfaces or virtual IPs that already exist in the system.
    It is recommend to use IP that has a unique subnetwork class and is not used in any other place in your configuration.
    Do you want to continue?

    first VIP: 192.168.8.40 / 255.255.248.0
    sec. VIP: 192.168.9.40 / 255.255.248.0

    Client1 192.168.8.21; 192.168.9.21 / 255.255.248.0
    Client2 192.168.8.22; 192.168.9.22 / 255.255.248.0
    etc.

    Even though you get the warning, you can still have them in the same subnet.
    If your iSCSI subnet is independant from all other LAN traffic, this will not be an issue.

    make sure a VIP, and a real IP are not matching in the system.
