PowerPath Access CLARiiON and DMX

We have an AIX 5.3 host with PowerPath installed. It has two HBA's. Can PowerPath access the DMX and CLARiiON using the same HBA's?

For example:
Zone 1
HBA 1 -> DMX

Zone 2
HBA 1-> CLARiiON

Zone 3
HBA 2-> DMX

Zone 4
HBA 2 -> CLARiiON

absolutely, Clariion best practice is to zone each HBA to SPA and SPB, for example:

zone 1 - SPA0 / HBA1
zone 2 - SPB0 / HBA1
zone 3 - DMX / HBA1

zone 4 - SPA3 / HBA2
zone 5 - SPB3 / HBA2
zone 6 - DMX / HBA2

also take a look at "Host connectivity guide for AIX" found here:
