1) native multipathing, no pvlinks

2) ioscan -fn

3) yes, do zoning

4) question not clear; in case of creating lock disk, adjust the cluster configuration file

hi Mark,

3. zoning is one zone?

if yo like to redudancy you need to make not only one zone but each HBA should have minimum one conection to your storage.
