Has anyone tried to connect ESXi 5 to Freenas using iSCSI? I had iSCSI up and running for couple weeks. I upgraded from ESXi 4.1u1 to 5.0.0 and I can't reconnect the iSCSI LUN. Autodiscovery works fine, the target shows up on the properties screen but I can't get it to show up under available devices/paths.
There are several people in vmware forums with same issue: http://communities.vmware.com/message/1819270#1819270

Under 4.1 Update 1 - Dynamic Discovery detects the targets correctly and presents all extents. The extents mounted work as expected.
Under 5.0 - Dynamic Discovery discovers correctly discovers the target but fails to detect any extents(paths/devices) associated with the target.
Update:
I found a post in the bug forum from 5 days ago, should have checked that section sooner. :)
Also listed in the 8.0.1-RC1 Errata:
iSCSI doesn't work with VMWare ESXi 5.0. An update to the iSCSI target software that addresses this issue will be available before 8.0.1-RELEASE.
