HP Matrix Operating Environment Software - Manual (Page 46)

NOTE: If you use VM Manager to manage a VM Host running Integrity VM Version 3.5 or earlier,
VM Manager does not fully support virtual device special files located in /hpap (introduced in HP
StorageWorks Secure Path software Version 3.0F SP2) as backing devices for virtual storage. If
a virtual storage device using an /hpap device special file already exists on a virtual machine
managed by VM Manager, VM Manager displays it on the VM Host Storage and VM Properties
Storage tabs as an unknown device (using the question mark icon,
). VM Manager displays the
correct device special file name (for example, /hpap/rdsk/hpap1) but the box representing this
device is not connected to the boxes that represent the physical storage devices associated with
that virtual device special file. In general, VM Manager correctly displays only those device special
files located in /dev.
