I tried this configuration. I found that the active/active
configuration worked but had strange issues. These may have been
related to the stability of OCFS2 itself or it might have had to do
with running on a non supported OS (Fedora Core 5). I had strange
issues. Folders that would not delete, system would not reboot after
OCFS2 hang. I spoke with someone else who had similar issues getting
this type of system into production.

I would suggest having with the active/passive replicated disk
formatted with ext3 as a backup plan.
