Problem with Multipath iscsi with vmware 6.7

Hi all, I'Ve received my NFR Version of VSAN for vsphere. Installation worked fine except that I only have one path to the target. Multipath seems not to work. I've set it up using this doc: https://www.starwindsoftware.com/resource-library/starwind-virtual-san-hyperconverged-2-node-scenario-with-vm...
