Simon is correct. Cfgmgr will configure hdisks even if it is reserved by another system.

                Are you sure this is correct? Sure: you can't actually do anything with
                disks which are reserved by another system, but I thought that cfgmgr would
                still configure both pdisk and hdisk. I haven't had a chance to test this,
                though.
