It's supported, just be mindful of the restrictions with VP. For instance you can't perform TimeFinder or SRDF operations between traditional devices and VP devices.

I think Scott meant up to V-Max. V-Max has fewer restrictions on Virtual Provisioning than DMX.

Quincy561 · Answer

Those restrictions are not different between DMX3 and DMX4, as far as I know.

ScottRiley · Answer

Correct, those restrictions apply DMX3 through VMax.

ScottRiley · Answer

Yeah that wasn't very clear. I meant DMX3 thorugh VMax, but I was refering to the think-to-thin restrictions on TimeFinder and SRDF.
