vmax is setup and can access it through service processor(SP), now i want to bring back the steps..indeed from this forums that, i do the following now:

Since I have access to the SP,

1. once this management host(windows VM) containing ESX  is zoned to vmax, I will provision 6 or 8 GKs to the windows host in one path from VMAX FA port, and another set of 6 or 8 GKs to the same host thru different FA port (as i have read somewhere that same GKs cannot be shared in two paths/FAs as normal volumes (confirm this). I will make sure these 12 GKs are RDMed to the Virtual machine server.
   
2. then I Install Solutions enabler on 7.1.2 on the box and apply (all necessary licenses or just SMC license ?) and then Install SMC 7.1.2
   

Thanks all.
