Multi-pathing

Multi-pathing is supported on EVA4000/6000/8000 only in a Windows environment using the Microsoft
Multipath I/O driver (MPIO), supported with iSCSI. Without multi-path capabilities, the iSCSI initiator can
only access one path of the storage controllers, which disables controller failover protection.
