Dave, Gerald,

It is now ok to mix HP and HDS storage with HDLM version 5.9.

Dave

Yes and using the Hitachi HDLM software.  

That is the only way to get dual path to the drives, if memory serves me
correctly.  

Also do not mix and match Hitachi and HP branded Hitachi on your server.


The HDLM software is different as is their microcode.

Thanks,

Jerry

	What is your multipath/redundant path approach? 

	Is it IBM supplied, or Hitachi supplied?

	Thanks.
