Hi Jay,
Thanks for the information, if I've 2 iscsi LUNS , is it possible to share this LUNS with 5 ESX4i server & work as like ESX4 ?
If you have real and good link for the comparison between ESX4 & ESX4i , then please send it to me.
My server is having 16 cores & 64 Gb memory, ESX4i should adopt all this resources, I think so.
Thanks & Regards,
Rashid Mustafa
Yes, you will be able to share the iSCSI storage with all of 5 ESX4i host.
Unless and until you have the shared storage, you can share it with all the hosts.
For the comparison, please refer the below link.

The limit for cores is 6 per socket unless you are using the upper level licensing.
