I'm working on implementing it now, but reviewing the posts you made caused me to wonder if your SAN was properly setup for these live migrations. Did you get it sorted out?. The config is this, you need shared LUNs. The CX4 is capable of this, we're using it currently for our ESXi environment.

Regarding the management, why wouldn't you be using Enterprise Ops Center?

What is the connectivity here? FC or iSCSI?

If FC, what HBA's are you using?

Are you asking about the OP's setup?

Live migration was done successfully that is not a problem. What we were trying to achieve was to use the ovm manager to manage ldoms on sparc but ops center is the way to go. We might try to implement it in a couple of months time.

Our CX4 is FC only and we use emulex HBAs.

I'm working on a proof of concept now for Ops Center. Let me know if you want to compare notes. I'm on a CX4 as well, which makes it particularly interesting to me.

Unfortunately, I have a project starting from next week. Replacing both our CX4 and VNX and implementing DPA and DD.

OPS center is not a priority right now as we are using SCOM but it is in the pipe line.
