Hi Alex, 

Thanks for confirming that SCSI inquiries are supported from both guest LDom 
and control Domain on the same physical SCSI disk. 

However, your statement, 
"When using VxDMP, you should use the disk as managed by VxDMP (i.e. 
/dev/vx/dmp/dsk/...) and not the physical disk itself (/dev/dsk/...)". 

But this statement contradicts (if I understood correctly) the following 
statement mentioned in Veritas 5.0 MP3 document, which says,

"The virtual disk client (VDC) driver controls all virtual disks in the Guest 
LDom and not the SCSI driver. Therefore, it is not possible to construct a SCSI 
packet and send the packet down through DMP." [ section DMP SCSI Bypass, page 
22 under Veritas Storage Foundation features restrictions]

Does this mean that with DMP in guest domain  SCSI inquiry should be invoked on 
on /dev/dsk/... and not on /dev/vx/dmp/... device?
