  1. Old thread i know, so sorry for the bump.. I have an MSA SAN 2012i also, and 2 servers attached. they are reading shared files (for applications / web pages), so that we only have to update one location, and they have their own HD for their OS. however I have been told that in order for shared files to work, you must use oc2fs, NOT ext, otherwise when one updates, the other server does not know... now in this setup, in order to add a node to cluster, I have take down all nodes, and if one machine dies, they all die!! because they check to see if > 50% of nodes are alive, and if not, they reboot, but with 2 servers, if one dies, you do not have 50% the upshot is that a flexible, fail-over, resilient, scalable system supposed to have 100% uptime becomes non-fail-over, non-resilient, and non-scalable... is there some trick i am missing (i may be just being really stupid here), as i expected to juts be able to attach whatever i wanted to shared storage, no problem...
