There are some tid bits on SAN in this post:

No direct answer for your load question.

Who exactly is becoming read-only? The SAN or Solr? I mean, where is the
error coming from?

Ultimately a network connection is probably going to be more load-sensitive
than having the same storage devices local to the server. It would come as
no surprise that the SAN would attempt to shed load if the load becomes too
extreme.
