Dell MD3 arrays, DDP (Dynamic Disk Pools) and multipathing

$

Hi,

 

Our Dell MD3660i arrays want by default for me to set up DDP (disk pools), rather than disk groups.

I understand how to set up multipathing with disk groups and ESXi 5.1, but I am unsure about disk pools (DDP). There is little documentation on this as DDP arrived in a relatively new firmware release.

 

Has anyone integrated shared storage on a Dell MD3 array set up with DDP with ESXi 5.1?

 

DDP is very appealing as it has fast rebuild times, lots of spindles (IOPS) and great coverage on disk failure.

Thanks
