RE: [Xen-users] Xen and DomU GFS2 data access

[Jeff Sturm <jeff.sturm@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You can have a cluster of dom0 hosts, and you can also have a cluster of domU 
hosts.  (We have both.  Our dom0 cluster runs CLVM, and our domU cluster runs 
GFS.)

However that by itself does not allow a dom0 and and domU to share storage, 
unless they are part of the same cluster.  I haven't tried to build a cluster 
of mixed physical/paravirt hosts, and I can imagine it would be tricky to do 
correctly.

Alternatively, you could share the GFS2 filesystem with a domU over NFS.
