If VERITAS Volume Manager is used for AIX found in Storage Foundation 5.0 with
MP1 version X follow the VERITAS Volume Manager Installation and User Guide, which is
available from www.VERITAS.com.
Install all prerequisite APARs as required in the VERITAS Installation Guide for AIX.
The VERITAS DMP layer in VERITAS Volume Manager does not recognize the storage server
volumes as being mulitpathed until 3PAR VERITAS ASL for the InServ Storage Server is installed.
The VERITAS ASL for the InServ Storage Server can be obtained from http://
seer.entsupport.symantec.com/.
3.4.3 Configuring the Veritas DMP Multipathing
There are no special considerations or configuration modifications that require changing when
using the InServ Storage Server, as long as the VERITAS ASL for 3PAR is installed.
