To get clustered LVM you need to use clvm (RPM package lvm2-cluster) which synchronises LVM metadata updates across the cluster.
This only works with Red Hat cluster suite though - you would need you write your own cluster management plugin for OCFS2 if you
wanted to use that (hard, but not impossible). Of course, RHCS does offer GFS as the cluster filesystem, if that's what you really need!

Another option is GPFS from IBM, free as in beer. It really is a state of the art cluster filesystem and well worth the effort to look into if you are in the market for a cluster FS.

The worst that can be said is that he's an underachiever.
