    With the introduction of HA 5.5 and WPARS, I've decided to complicate things a bit more. The only difference now is that NODE B is a WPAR and Node A is not. I understand that the global instance owns everything. My question is, how to import the VG/filesystems into the global instance to make them ready for the WPAR (node B)? My understanding is that in order to present the file systems to the WPAR is to chfs to point to the /wpar dir.
    For example:
    chfs -m /wpars/nodeB/db2 /db2

    Doing this would impact the VGDA and thusly impact the mount point on Node A. I suppose a work-around would be to create links. Is there a better approach to this?
