the question is not about FC technology its about how you're able to use it, particularly in virtual environments.
There are several other posts in this forum wihch relate to this question - e.g. Can Snap Drive be used in an ESX environment with NPIV.
Some where in this forum there is an answer that says its not.
Therefore you would need to be aware of that fact if you had planned to use NPIV in ESX.
I, along with others have not found a definitive answer to this question.
All my original post was asking was if there was somewhere where this question could be answered.
