Please consider moving this question as-is (no need to recreate) to the proper forum for maximum visibility.  Questions written to the users' own "Discussions" space don't get the same amount of attention and questions can go unanswered for a long time.  You can do so by selecting "Move" under ACTIONS along the upper-right.  Then search for and select: "PowerPath" which would be the most relevant for this question.   I'm pretty certain PowerPath/VE doesn't support IBM SVC.  From IBM as noted in the ESM and the latest PowerPath/VE 5.8 Release Notes, it supports just the following:  [...] IBM • XIV • DS8x00 [...]  Also the Administration and Installation Guide, shows the following claim rules:  [...] Storage system     Claim rule IBM DS8x00         MP 320 file vendor PowerPath vendor=IBM model=2107900 IBM XIV MP         330 file vendor PowerPath vendor=IBM model=2810XIV [...]   Let's see what others suggest once relocated.
Hello community,  does anybody know if we support SVC from IBM with Powerpath VE in a VMWare environment? I know that VPLEX is supported but the customer is running SVC with EMC Storage.  Thanks for your input.  Kind Regards,  Michael
Powerpath VE supported with SVC?
