Our testing group has machines that use AOE. It works well with
CLVM. However, they use their machines as a cluster. It seems to me
that you want to carve up your storage, but you only want one machine
to use each piece.
LVM manual briefly mentions CLVM (should apply equally well to debian):
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-5-manual/Cluster_Logical_Volume_Manager/index.html
You will want to come up to speed on the cluster infrastructure (at
least the setup) if you want to use CLVM....

Hello there,
Is there any hint or any links anyone could share for the use of lvm
on an AOE storage (shared block device over the network). I wanted
to know how to create lvm group on a device that is shared among
several host.
so i use debian 4 servers that acces a AOE target drive. The servers
all mount the etherdrive and i want to use lvm to partition this
4Terabyte block device in smaller chunck. what should be the best
way to do that ?
While googling about this i found references to clvm but no
documentation i could use on how to set it up. Is this the way to go ?
regards,
Jean.
