In an active-standby NFS cluster scenario, is GFS still required as the format for the data drives? I would be using a 2 node cluster so I would need a quorum disk too. Since only 1 node will have access at any one time, could I get away with ext3 (or whatever) formatted volumes?
As long as you can absolutely guarantee that no more than 1 node will mount the volume, yes, you can use ext3.
Along the same note, I am going to ask an obvious question and answer it myself. :) In an active-active, this would definitely need to be GFS formatted, correct?
