HFS directories under MPE groups can be located on non-system volume sets. But, HFS directories under the root and accounts must reside on the system volume.

High-availability products, such as Mirrored Disk, Autorestart, and SPU Switchover, are restricted to non- system volume sets; therefore, they cannot support HFS directories under the root or accounts. These products only support HFS directories as descendants of MPE groups.

As a workaround, symbolic links can be used to "redirect" directories from under root or an account to a group that is located on a user volume set.
