I am curious about what is happening with your iscsi configuration
Is this a new iscsi config or something that has just cropped up ?
We are using/have been using vmware for 5+ years with iscsi
We are using the kernel iscsi vs tcmu
We are running ALUA and all datastores are setup as RR
We routinely reboot the iscsi gateways - during patching and updates
and the storage migrates to and from all servers without issue
We usually wait about 10 minutes before a gateway restart, so there
is not an outage
It has been extremely stable for us
Thanks Joe

From the logs it means the client was switching the path in turn.
BTW, what's policy are you using ?
Thanks
