Teaming is not supported in

Windows with iSCSI Boot.

Creating a team using the primary and secondary iSCSI adapters and selecting that

team during the Microsoft initiator installation may fail with constant reboots. Do not

select a team for iSCSI Boot, even if it is available for selection during initiator

installation.

For load balancing and failover support, you can use Microsoft Multipath I/O (MPIO)

instead. Refer to the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator User Guide for MPIO setup.

Potential system failure may occur

if DHCP re-uses IP addresses after

their lease expires.

If you are using DHCP for the initiator or target IP configuration, potential system

failure may occur if DHCP re-uses those IP addresses after their lease expires. It is

recommended to use static IP or DHCP reserved IP addresses to avoid this.
