After looking in detail clvm is not what I need... clvm provide a locking system for protecting lvm configuration changes on lv... It doesn't prevent mounting the volumes on 2 hosts.
After searching for a while, I don't find any reponse for my question "What do I need in order to protect my shared storage (shared SAN lun with lvm volumes) during live migration?". My question is probably not right... Is it correct to say that : "A migration moves the complete domU state including the current VFS state. The old domU is paused and all remaining dirty blocks are copied over before the migrated domU is taken active and the paused domU gets killed." If it is I don't need to protect my shared lvm volume.... If nobody try to mount it on the two dom0 ?
