All devices set to 127.0.0.1 for MPIO Fail Over Only?

When I look under the MPIO Device Details in iSCSI Initiator (2012 R2), I see that not all of the devices are using 127.0.0.1 as the primary path. Should all devices on both nodes be set to 127.0.0.1 under normal conditions until a failover occurs?

If you are talking about scenario, when StarWind runs on the same OS, so as the client application (i.e. Hyper-V, MS SQL, etc.), then yes, MS iSCSI initiator should be configured in this way according to our guidelines. But there may be exceptions. We will be able make exact statements if you will provide us with more details about your configuration.
