Thats not true. You can do live kvm guest migration using RHEL/CentOS+RHCS+KVM using
lvm volumes to allocate/install kvm guests, for example. In this case you don't need
a shared filesystem ...
To accomplish a live kvm migration (or xen) you need a shared storage, not a
clustered filesystem or shared filesystem.

I have two solaris zfs/nfs fileservers sharing storage to 5 ESXi servers and
performance is very very good ... And it is a production system ...

This case isn't possible, because you can't mount an ext3 or ext4 filesystem at the
same time in two or more hosts ...
