after the restart, if booted in runlevel 1, did you
see the LUNs ?
I mean as normal sdX devices
for example:
fdisk -l /dev/sdf
give you the correct information?

well,  you have a _two_ node cluster, so, you will
have always one node up, right?
if the LUNs are see it by the OS (kernel)

I guess it is a matter of lvm unable to read the LUNs,
"initializated" the VG and LV

but, what about fencing and quorum of the cluster, are
they ok? 
or the node never go over the clvmd start and stay in
that stage forever?
