In theory this would be possible with GFS, and I think there are people that do do it using a SAN as the back end. The overhead of using GFS instead of EXT3, combined with the DRBD overhead means that I don't think you'd actually get much of a performance increase.... The machines will keep tripping over each other. Graham
