Cannot attach iSCSI LUN to ESXi host
Trying to attach new iSCSI LUN to ESXi 5.1 host.

@ vmk1 failed. The iSCSI initiator could not establish a network connection to the target.
error
In Configuration - storage adaptors - under the datailes I can see the LUN as mounted.
When I am going to add the storage in Hardware - Storage :
Add Storage - Disk/LUN - Hignline the LUN - after a couple of mi there is an error :
Call "HostDatastoreSystem.Creat eVmfsDatas tore" for object "datastoreSystem-15" on vCenter Server "XXXXXX" failed.

With the help of hanccocka was able to find the problem
ASKER
this is a new LUN on a new MD3220i
Can ping and vmkping
Can telnet
Both IPs and port are Ok - 3260
Screenshots attached
If I use hardware
Right now I can only connect ESXi host to MD3220 through Broadcom NIC's hardware iscsi TOE drive,however that won't allow me to config NIC teaming for more throughput and failover.
No authentication enabled
No permissions or ACL on LUN...
Thanks
