Explanation:
iSCSI SAN Configuration Guide, page 40.
If you disable CHAP on a system that requires CHAP authentication, existing iSCSI sessions remain active until you reboot your ESX/ESXi host or the storage system forces a logout. After the session ends, you can no longer connect to targets that require CHAP.
