VM mount setup for snapshots and clones

We are in the process of taking snapshots and clones of a VM server.  The lun is a RDM in physical mode.   I wanted to confirm the setup to mount the snapshot or clone to a VM mount host.  

For the clone lun:

1.       I need add it to the EMC & ESX storage group.  

2.       Add the clone to the VM mount host as a RDM.

3.       Check maintain lun visibility after mount in RM.

By following these steps I will ensure the VM mount host sees the luns any time we need to un-mount and re-mount the clone.  Please confirm.

For the snapshot:

*Not sure what is needed since the snap cache is in private luns.  What is required so we can mount a snapshot.
