Wes, I have to find more information on the mupdate replicated architecture, may be a very good solution. I have taken a fast look on this but I have not For Scott: the servers are connected with a redundant fiber channel to a SAN (on 2 different controllers of the SAN). The servers are on the same partition of the SAN, so they can see the same lun. On that lun I have the shared GFS. Just a note, the GFS version 2 is available but not yet supported by redhat and not recommended for production environment.
