Wait, RHCS has not yet kicked in. ( If your storage is a iscsi target, I am not covering it ) Simply speaking, let us take on from here: 1. get the rhcs and clvmd working.

Let httpd run from within the VM which can have just simple blistering fast native supported filesystem: If you are having RHEL 6, that would be ext4. Of course you have the option of the true 64 bit filesystem like xfs, btfs (technology previews) etc. 5. Prepare an SLA and availability guarantee statement from IT, distribute it to everybody and their dogs and cats and cows too. Well of course the CYA rule applies. 6. Run it and go home and sleep happily. And oh if you are using HA at all, you must seriously cosider having a DR and a monitoring system like Zabbix in place. I have heard quite a few sob stories and couselled many during the Risk Withdrawal Syndrome on learning that they were extremely vulnerable but fortunately for them, the incidents did not cause downtime in business.
