[Xen-users] san configuration with xen



Hi guys, i'm newbie in xen and i'm studying it for my stage at university. i successfully installed xen 3.0.3 on red hat es 4 on a couple of server. now i have a question. i have a san EMC Clariion attached to them with a fiber channel switch and i would like to use that as shared storage for testing live migration, and all features of xen systems. linux systems recognize SAN as sda device and then i can mount it normally. what type of FS may i use to grant concurrency access and consistency to san for both servers? i tried to format in a normal ext3 fs, but when i act changes with server A, server B must umount and remount partition to see that changes, and it doesn't recognized the owner, group and permission of that file. could u help me to follow a right procedure to prepare san for my test? I saw some emails that speak about nfs, Aoe, Gfs, clvm, but i think in that way i need to have a daemon server, like nfs, that manage access. there are aternatives?
Thanx for all
Regards
