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?
