powerpath & VMware RDM

Hi All,

There are 2 modes of RDM which VMWare has. one is compatible RDM, another is physical RDM.

Do I need to install PowerPath in that Virtual Machines which use RDM?

Thanks for any input

    you don't need to install anything on the host (regardless if you use PowerPath/VE or native NMP),  compatibility mode does not matter either.

    Hi Dennis.  PowerPath/VE for ESX is installed on the ESX 4.x hypervisor.  There is no need to install PowerPath on the guest.

    Thanks, Brion
