With Xen you can present the disk to both servers simultaneously. In the device entry it is important to specify that the device mode is w!. The ! tells Xen to allow both VMs to access it at the same time.
I do this with AoE (ATA over Ethernet). kblade or vblade could do this for you as well. On Mar 21, 2007, at 1:12 AM, nirmal tom wrote: hi, Its possible through iscsi,gnbd even NFSv4.But iscsi and gnbd makes sense. Open source project is

Hi,
I have only 1 physical server with a number of local harddisks (no SAN or external hardisks). I would like set up at least 2 virtual machines using either xen or vmware server, then cluster the virtual machines.
I wonder how could the same disks be presented to both virtual machines. i.e. both virtual machines can share the same disks ? Is it possible to configure the iSCSI to both virtual machines ?
The problem is I donnot have any SAN or external storage which can be shared to both servers.
