Yes, that works with XCP 1.0 beta, most of the time.

I had one final crash while swapping the active filer, with two corrupted 
filers and crashed file systems on all running domUs, as the result. Both 
dom0s where widely not responsive to ssh or local console requests, and 
freezed after invoked shutdown. No idea if there's any relationship.


I've found two kernel messages inside kern.log of the second dom0:
BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 61s! [swapper:0]
followed by one 
INFO: task rc:24537 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
There where a lot of IO errors at the same time on the first dom0.
