Here's one way:

 

Assumptions: 1. Both vcmp guests on the 5200v will be on different vlans or at least will not be using the same IP space (if you do, you will need to do route domains)2. You have a Nexus switch active-active setup.

 

On the 5200v you can setup a LACP trunk connection with an interface going to each of the nexus switches. Do the same on 2nd 5200v (mesh design) On the 5200v Host(hypervisor) gui interface, you will setup your LACP trunk to send tagged vlan traffic for each vlan that will be coming into either one of your Vcmp guests. Then when you create your seperate vcmp guests using the host GUI interface, you will share the needed vlans to each of your vcmp guests as needed.
