As far as I know RHEL 6 doesn't include system-config-cluster anymore. I suggest you use the luci interface to configure this. When creating a new service in luci you can choose the filesystem resource, this resource handles 9 different filesystems including reiser and XFS as well an an autodetect option. You can also manually edit the cluster.conf file to make these changes.
You can use XFS with cluster, the point that others were trying to make is that XFS is not a shared filesystem like GFS and can only be mounted on one node at a time.

Hi Rajagopal
I am not clear fully. I will use RHEL 6 . I want some more
clarification on
below points
1) You mean to say I can't use XFS with cluster ? OR there is no
option for
XFS with system-config-cluster ?
Depends on the type of cluster:
- HA cluster: no problem as long as it's active/passive. That is:
one server mounts the FS and the other is on standby. If server 1
fails, it releases the FS and server2 mounts it.
- shared/clustered filesystem: you'd have to go with CXFS (get in
touch with SGI). That is: both servers mount the filesystem at the
same time.
2) If I edited the cluster.conf file manually for "xfs" will the
cluster
server work well ?
3) what is work around solution ?

Hello ,
I am configuring redhat cluster suite with RHEL 5.4 , 32 bit
architecture
I have my one SAN partition with reiserfs and xfs filesystem.
To the best of my knowledge, XFS support has just started on RHEL6.
I am not sure that ReiserFS was ever supported by Redhat.
If you are trying to use those filesystems in the cluster, I don't
think they are cluster aware.
YMMV.
