Somesh, thx - I understand that - one more question, since you guys are
arround :)

The primary storage network - I unnderstand how to separate that from
management networks on the host (having separate NIC/vlan/IP inside each
hypervisor host, etc) - but as far as I know, the SSVM doesnt have a NIC
that goes directly into the Pimary storage network, just into management -
does this mean, that the Primary storage network needs to be
reachable/routable from Management network (so SSVM uses "Reserved System
Gateway" to actually reach Primary storage network, through Management
network) ?
SSVM needs to reach Primary storage somehow...

Thx
