Sorry, I must have misunderstood (I could have sworn you were talking
about running VxvM that comes with SSA along with VxVM purchased from
Veritas for us eon non-SSA storage).

In any case, use of VxVM and ODS/SDS on one system is fully supported.
"Good neighbor" testing is a routine part of our test process.  You can
even us eboth on different portions of the same SSA. Just don't put any
given disk under the control of both.
