powerpath psuedo device on a partition?

Problem : we have a 1.5 Gig LUN defined as /dev/emcpowerh. From that LUN I need to define 5 280MB block devices for Oracle RAC (2 OCR and 3 voting disks). Using fdisk I can create /dev/emcpowerh1 ... /dev/emcpowerh5

Will multipathing work for those partitions?

    it will because PowerPath seats well below logical partitions.

    AFAIK, OCR and Voting disks need to be independant LUNs. Not partitions of the same LUN.
