On the VNXe you can only have 1 iscsi server per SP, and you can only have two NICS assigned to the iSCSI server.

Two Questions:

If I have two nics bound to two vmkernel ports, whats the max paths that I can have per volume/LUN? Would it be 4? I have a weird scenario where my first host sees 4 paths per volume and my second host only sees 2 (physical setup /connectivity are the same)

Also, does there need to be connectivity between the physical switches that i have?

The most effective iSCSI paths you can have to a single LUN on the VNXe is two since you can only assign to network ports to a single iSCSI server. You can see more than 2 paths if you have more than 2 iSCSI ports on your VMware host, but it all goes through the same 2 ports on the iSCSI server so it doesn't do any good.
