Thanks Daniel.

That's kinda what I thought. And these are not even NPIV'ed (just 1 LPAR).

    Re: EDEVICE Question

Hi John,

I can't speak as to what's absolutely best, but I can tell you that in our environment we use a single set of multipathed FCP subchannels with access to multiple LUNs for our EDEVs.  The EDEVs are then shared between 60 or so guests per LPAR without any issue.

    Hello,
    When setting up EDEVs, is it preferable to use a unique FCP subchannel
    per EDEV or to use a single FCP subchannel for multiple EDEVs?
    I multi path each EDEV across all my FCP CHPIDS and they are used in a
    single LPAR, so I'm not sure it matters?
    Thanks.
