Sun's hand need to be twisted by ur mgmt :) then they agree to support EMC. EMC is essential to run high end stuff with big databases using OPS to get good performance. one of my collegues run sun/emc using sun cluster and OPS. For him also the first reponse from SUN is it is not supported :) Later they supported.
