I do not know if u are all ready done with this .. but i had the same issue. and the workaround which i used/found was since DVD is hard coded to XSB 00-0
1. u can shutdown the domain 0 a
2.move the XSB 00-0 with new LSB 15 and
3. assign that XSB to the domain 1
4 build the domain 1 from the dvd/cd ...
5. Unassign the XSB 00-0 from domain 1 and assign it to domain 0
But i m searching for document which gives steps to partition this box (M5000) in 4 domains with SAN Boot or other alternative booting method as this box has only 4 max internal HDDs
