Is that even possible? I dont doubt your suggestion, I just didnt know that
linux would support sharing the same array with n+1 machines. I was pretty
sure that there would be file locking issues or something along those lines.
Are there any specific restrictions on this? (type of FS used, type of
array, etc)  Im guessing that there is probably a website somewhere devoted
to this topic, but if there is I havent found it yet. I have toyed with the
idea of using a shared fiberchannel SAN for a long time, but I was pretty
sure it wouldnt work (not to mention they are sort of expensive.. hehe.).

Thanks!
