The MD3000 we used has two controllers in a active/passive configuration. This only allows you to connect two nodes to the array to use it in a GFS configuration.Hello...

I would like to take one MD3000 to connect to four servers. Mark one as read/write for updating and the other three as readonly. I realize with GFS any could write, but I would like it to be as simple as possible.
What kind of fencing did you use? Or is the MD3000 able to handle that part?
Fencing needs to be done separate from the storage array.
