Guest - Guest clustering on single Hardware

[Metehan]

Hi Community,

I found a document mentioning about the limitations of guest to guest clustering on a virtualized environment (i.e. vmware ESXi) because of the I/O fencing problems in Veritas Cluster Suite 5.1

My question is do we still have this same limitation on v 6.1? 

You can find the article below;

The document that you found says that disks used for I/O fencing must be RDM-P and will still work in 6.1.
