RE: ASM over SLVM

You've bought some expensive stuff, I should think HP owes you some
answers
on this. Since ASM is just a block bucket, people are just now (after
people like
me have been poiting this out since the release of 10g) finding that
they
need a multipath I/O solution to complement ASM. I do not know HP layers
products well enough to say, but it seems logical to me that Secure path
is
where MPIO is implemented but needs LVM on top to complement. Like I
said, I'm only taking an educated guess.

        Kevin,
        As mentioned earlier:
        .
        SLVM provides active/standby multi-pathing support for RAC and
        single instance ("pvlinks") 
        .
        Secure path is also being used, so would pvlinks still be
necessary, any idea?
